50 mile April Challenge - Checkpoint 1

Running! I remember when my favorite exercise line was that I'll only run if I'm being chased. That wasn't totally true either. I wouldn't run even then. Now it's a whole new ball game. Nice to have you on board.

With a goal for April of 100 miles, here's where things stand as of April 9th: Mileage in March: 115 (50 walking, 60 stationary bike, 5 elliptical) Total mileage through April 9th: 49 (19 walking, 30 stationary bike) Percentage of monthly goal: 49% Percentage of month elapsed: 30% I met with my surgeon last week, so now I'm just waiting to hear that I've gotten insurance company approval and then we can plan of a mid-June surgery date!

Your doc is going to be thrilled with the amount of moving you're doing now. Any pound lost before surgery helps your recovery time immensely. Good stuff Bill.
