So I come back from the beach sore…….

What’s up with that?

You can blame my mom.

She is truly amazing. For the last couple of years she has been on a walking mission. She walks everyday for about 4-5 miles. And while I was at the beach, I walked with her. It was nice to have someone to talk to while I walk. I usually walk on my treadmill and I usually only do 1-2  miles per day. And on a treadmill there is no one to talk to. So that was really a nice thing.

I am not in my mom’s league.

But I did it! And guess what? It wasn’t my muscles that were sore at the end of my week. It was my dadgum stupid knees. Every step by Wednesday was excruciating.

Don’t worry, I feel much better now. And I’m back to my piddly little 1-2 mile walks.

But! It did make me feel good that walking that far didn’t incapacitate me. I have had fibromyalgia health issues for years. And sometimes it lays me low. But I must be getting better or going through a good spell because I did this.

Here is a GPS picture of our route that my mom downloaded from her special GPS walking watch. It records every step you take.
