Do you exercise? What do you do for exercise? Alone / with others
In preparation for the 5k in June, I have been trying to walk daily. Yesterday, instead of visiting the cows, I went to the Walgreens across the street for a diet coke. Last night, Roy and I actually walked to the Walgreens near our house. Took us about an hour. It was nice to be walking together again.
Today at lunch, despite the need for an umbrella, I managed to again "visit the cows" and feed them some of the tops of the lovely weeds that grow outside the pasture. They congregated around the gate and did not seem fazed by my blue and white golf sized umbrella! I expected them to be spooky and skittish. For the most part, they seem calm and unfazed. The bull doesn't come near the gate. He follows the young cows and makes his silly faces, curling his upper lip like a clown!
After just a few days of walking, I feel better. Maintaining the exercise habit is where I struggle.
What about you? Do you currently exercise regularly? In what activities do you participate? Was it hard to get started? Do you prefer to exercise alone, with a friend, or in a group? What helped you to get in the habit?

I used to like to walk outside, but that was back when I was unemployed. I could go for miles, over the bridge, down to the beach. I used to only go see movies if I walked to the theater. Now that I have to be at work at 7:15, I walk on a treadmill at the YMCA. I try to run as much of it as possible, which isn't very much. I am looking forward to getting back to using the weight machines too, now that the last of my stitches is almost all healed. I hope that by June 7, I'll have built up enough endurance to do the race without too much pain!
Wish I could visit the cows with you!!!
