I went for my walk and decided to try the couch to 5k program (it builds you up to being able to run a 5k in 9 weeks!)  I DID it!   6 one minute jogs!  (Granted, my jogging is like a "normal " person's fast walking...but it was WORK for me!!!  haha!!!!!)  WOW....and it didn't kill me!  I ended up walking 4.5 miles!  I'll let you know how my knees, ankles and hips hold out later today!!!!  honks everyone!!!!!!!!   Ruth
