I fell on the ice, yesterday. I think my daily exercise helped me handle the whole thing with much more grace and less injury. I also think my instinct to not miss my workout and to make sure I moved yesterday made a difference to how I feel today, too. No stiffness. I have a bit of achiness and a mildly swollen wrist that only hurts if put weight on it.

Thanks, gardenerjoy and pamatga! We had a lovely ice storm this week that left my entire county (and all the surrounding ones, too) without power for three days. So that meant no gym, and exercising outside was pretty much out of the question due to the neighborhood being coated in four inches of solid ice. All cleared up now, though, so I finally got outside for a nice sunny (and muddy) walk.

6: 60 minutes walking at 2.5 mph, mildly strenuous

8: 15 minutes walking at 2.5 mph, 45 minutes at 3.0 - was a sweaty mess at the end
