A+ Day for steps .....

Record day today for steps ..... 10,058! This is a little under five miles of walking and it is the most I've done in one day. I can't even begin to tell you how big of an improvement this is - it is HUGE step forward for my foot! It was definitely an A+ and blue ribbon day in the walking department! I went to the gym tonight, but didn't do any cardio w/walking, since I had met the goal for the day & just did other exercises. I had kids at JA today and I do a lot of walking on student visit days.

Now I really do wish the Dallas surgeon could see it. I plan to send some pictures, but it is definitely better seeing it in person.

Just for comparison I'd say I was doing the following:
November, 2008 - about 500-800 steps per day (at most)- before the tendon surgery
December, 2009 - 1-2,000 per day - post-op; after cast came off

Calling it a day for today .... needless to say I'll sleep well tonight.
Just wanted to share my "step news" for the day!
