Congrats. Impressive. Best wishes that you can get back to your hiking. I am not familiar with your walking exercise machine. Can you explain?

I'm surprised that I hadn't seen this Thread. In the end of January 2020 I took time off from work to have Carpal Tunnel surgery in both hands. With nothing else to do I started walking and soon topped 10,000 steps a day. By that Sept. I was averaging 7 miles a day. Idiot drivers getting too close to me had me give up on walking along side the road. But staying above 4 miles a day has been quite easy. Retiring summer of 2021 has allowed me to keep my steps up. I dropped from 222 pounds to hovering around 199 pounds. In summer the walking mower is an asset. Winter keeping enough wood for the stove helps. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other 🖖.
