When I went in today to work out on the treadmill at the Y, I ran across 'The Dr Oz Show'. Okay, you need to know that I *never* watch 'Pop Doc' programs. Too many years in health care, I guess. But I started watching this.
If ever there was a Cosmic Finger of Something pointing down at me today, this was it. I mean, it's right up there with realizing the Y was only 5" from home, cost less than the one in Tacoma, was a lot less crowded and just, in general, felt like the right thing to do.
So today I start. I mean, let's face it, I can't do worse.
FWIW: I started the Y back on Dec 10, 2010. Could do about 15" on the tread at a slow walking pace [5% grade and 2.0 mph] until I felt a bit limited with a max heart rate of 135/m.
Today? 60" with a 5" cool down [5% grade @ 2.6 mph] with a max HR of 122/m.
I think I'm doing something right.
