All good things must come to an end....my hiatus from exercise is over. Actually, it was great to get back to the gym today. I went after work and did 15 minutes on the "ergometer". The ergometer is an upper body cardio workout - like pedaling a bike, but with your arms. It just felt good to do something to get my heartrate up - besides just walking on crutches.
My one crutch walking is going pretty well too. I have to get warmed up in the morning - some people have reminded me that I'm not getting any younger. Once I get going, I can walk pretty well.
It was beautiful weather here today and I did think about the fact that had I not fallen, I would be training for the Avon Breast Cancer Walk in June. Still pretty bummed about not being able to do that. Maybe that can be a goal for next year. Although, I may want to reconsider. Last year I walked and 3 days later I fractured my big toe. This year I was going to walk and broke my ankle. Hmmmm....
