Day 57 - Waddling for a Mile

After sitting on my behind for most of the day at work, I needed to get out and workout my leg and hip. Instead of riding my mountain bike on the trainer, I decided to try out my wife's treadmill for the first time. I got on it and turned it on at a slow pace of 1 mph. That was too slow so I gradually increased it to about 1.8 mph which was a good pace for me. I started walking. My foot hurt, my hip ached, and I walked like a penguin, favoring my injured leg and hip. Thirty minutes later I stopped after waddling for a mile. While it may not seem like a lot and it wasn't a pretty sight, I did it without my cane! I was proud of that.
