Today I walked two miles on my own!!! Not a marathon, but...
      06/05/2008 11:33

it's the furthest I've walked since last July when my knees gave up on me, so that for a few days I couldn't walk at all. and I also developed very bad sciatica. Since then, I've gradually been building my walking up, but I've been very nervous about going out on my own because it sometimes feels as though my legs are just going to buckle under me, and sometimes the pain is very severe.

However, I've been exercising a lot, had some acupuncture and bought a support belt (which looks dreadful, but feels sooo supporting and comforting on my back), and today, my little dog and I went out in the sun and I did it!!!
