Birthday accomplishments

I’m 7 weeks post ant THR and on August 31st I celebrated my 62nd birthday and challenged myself with these goals since I can’t jog. Did it because my numbers aligned. On the 31st I walked a 3.1 miler and I pushed the pace the first mile to see what I could do and it was just over 16minute mile. Did the rest of the 5K with my 85 year old runner friend who now just walks. Then later on in the day I biked 6.2 MI since I was turning 62 years old. Both of these efforts were no problem and I was so happy to accomplish them. It’s a great way to start my 62nd year walking without pain. I’m looking forward to adding jogging in 2019. In the meantime I’ll be working on walking more distance and biking.

      Happy Birthday and congrats on your accomplishment! You’re not 62 years old…..you’re 62 year YOUNG! Keep setting those goals and remember, if the hip barks at you, give it a rest and then try again after a couple of days. Eventually, it stops barking. 🙂
