As for me I was on the treadmill yesterday for 30 minutes. When I went on Tuesday I tried to speed up some but it started hurting my bad knee. So I had to slow back down to a little bit faster than tortoise speed. I decided yesterday that if I couldn't be a hare, then I was going to be a mountain goat. I increased my incline every five minutes as a way to give myself a challenge. It went pretty well!

Good for you, Mopsie! See? One thing at a time! You're doing great!!!

I have trouble with my knees too. I'm not sure if it would work for you, but glucosamine works wonders for me. It coats the joints so it's especially good for argumentative knees.

I get to do some manual labor today but it's okay. It'll be 20 degrees cooler than yesterday and with far less humidity.
