I am a bit bummed out

Not because of my bum, but because of my right leg, which is not so much right as it is wrong.

At least I’m still getting some exercise with my daily walks at “a very brisk pace” as My Fitness Pal likes to describe them. I skipped Tuesday’s run and will skip tomorrow’s, too (Thursday). I may run Friday if the leg miraculously feels much better, but that seems quite unlikely.

At this point if someone offered me two choices:

A) $500,000 with no strings attached
B) healthy legs for the rest of my natural life

I would seriously consider option B. In fact, I would choose option B. $500,000 would buy a lot of ice cream to console myself with, but my waistline, general fitness and overall mental well-being would be better-served by legs that behaved themselves.

If option A was $1,000,000 I’d at least consider taking it and think about buying a bike. Bikes are good exercise, as long as you stay away from cars and large trucks that can knock you out of your shoes.

Mostly I am really anxious to get jogging again.
