I completed my first walk
I completed my first walk shortly after my bilateral surgery when I was 57. I know what you mean about keeping going and proving that it can be done. I needed a nap afterward as well. I'm now 60 and walked a 5k yesterday (in almost an hour and 20 minutes, lol) with some friends on a glorious day.
Congratulations to you (and many more fine 5k's). xoxoxo Lynn0 -

Congratulations on proving those doubters wrong, and -- more importantly -- doing something to remind yourself how strong you are.
I walked my first-ever 5K when I was 7 months out of treatment, and clocked in at 1 hour and 20 minutes -- and I'm only 41! You're making me look bad!
(and yes, there was definitely a nap afterwards!)

Good for you!missrenee said:Good job, Skipper
I love how you were determined to prove that "Yes, you could make it all the way." You should feel proud and empowered.
Hugs, Renee
You go girl!
We had the Komen walk here yesterday. I thought about going down to cheer everyone on, but even though my heart said yes, my legs said no. It would have been a walk just to get to the venue.

Very impressive feat! (and feet!) You must feel so proud. I'm not sure that my old 59-year-old body could have done that!

Way to go, Skipper! I wanted to walk this year, but am feeling much too poorly to do so. Thank you for walking for ALL of us!
Peace,
