The weather was really nice today so I went for a walk outside my house. Since I received a replacement Apple Watch, I was able to track fitness activities again. I walked 1.14 miles with a pace of 23’03”. I felt mostly fine, with no pain from the transplant incision site. However, my right knee and ankle are still hurting. The pain has subsided somewhat but it is still pretty awkward to walk longer distances.
I remember a year ago, during my heart surgery recovery, I set a goal of joining a 5k run in 2020, and actually run the course instead of just walking the route. Then COVID-19 hit, along with a bunch of small medical issues. Now with the kidney transplant surgery, it feels like I am starting over regarding physical activities.
