Before long you will be running all kinds of marathons! Early last week when I thought I was walking 1/2 mile I was actually walking 1 mile!! I measured it with my car. It was difficult with my back and leg neuropathy on the trip back and had to make little stops and rests and start again but I never thought I could walk a mile. I did however do some marathon walking while shopping on Friday and Saturday and my back is out right now so I have to take it easy for a couple days and then I want to start walking again. I went to the doctor week before last and with tests and xrays he confirmed my suspensions that I have COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) I knew I had it and am way thankful that I quit smoking 2 years ago. He gave me 2 new inhalers and they seem to help some. I agree--breathing is necessary!!! Keep up the great job and I hope that Chris has an awesome race!!! Good for you!!
