It’s the first time I’ve walked outside (for exercise) in over two months. The last several times I walked outside, I was afraid I was going to be stranded on the side of the street. At the time, I was still having issues with pleural effusion (now that I know what it means) so it was difficult to breathe, and often I would have to sit on the curb and rest. Today was a bit different. I don’t know the exact stats since the Fitbit had a brain fart and didn’t record the walk. Maybe it knows I ordered an Apple Watch.
Anyway, the walk took about 25 minutes and Google Maps said I walked ~0.945 miles. I didn’t have to stop at all and was breathing normal at the end of the walk. It’s amazing how a bit of fluid can have such a huge impact. I need to start walking more now that I can breathe and my toe is pretty much healed.
