This is a good time to begin again.

With my new waterproof case for my Ipod, swimming is something of a joy. I set out to do 100 lengths yesterday, but did 120 instead. Instead of counting each lap, I used a system of counters, moved across the tiles to keep track of my laps. I didn't realize how many I had done until I actually stopped to count the number of tiles I had "swum" through.

And I've started a limited walking program - I walked a little over a mile the other day. I'm finding my method of walking wants to change, but I haven't figured out which way to plant my foot yet. The "new" foot did well, (although it wound up pretty sore) but I am noticing problems with the foot that hasn't been done yet, which is pretty distressing. I am not anxious to have it done and I really don't want to be laid up for so long again and, with Wally on the trail, I have no one to help me out either. Bummer!

Today will be a Pilates-type of day with stretches and core work.
