Walked 0.62 miles again

My wife and I went out in the late afternoon, and we did a slow walk around the block for another 0.62 miles. I was glad I wasn't going farther, because I was starting to get tired. The air was cool, and I wore a jacket plus my work clothes. We had rain last night, but the sun was out during our walk.

Walked 0.62 Miles

Since I haven't been running or walking for quite a while, I took it easy today and walked around the block for 0.62 miles. I took it slow and easy and felt pretty good.

Agressive Prostate Cancer

I've been diagnosed with a Prostate cancer of 8 (1-10) which is considered an aggressive cancer. I've started treatment, consisting of a pill every day and shots every three months, starting next Tuesday. The good news is that I've had no pain due to the cancer and surgery on my bladder. The bad news is that my treatment doesn't remove the cancer, only shrinks it and slows it down. It could be a lot worse, though. I'm still alive and kicking! Prostate cancers in old guys are quite common.

The ulcer on my left leg has healed.

Jogged and walked 1.1 miles

Because I haven't been for a run in a couple of weeks, I only went 1.1 miles, and I walked more than I jogged. I'm still using 90 seconds jogging and 70 seconds walking. Today was a warm day, and I took off my windbreaker and tied it around my waist.

The ulcer on my left leg isn't completely healed, but it is much better. I can walk without much pain, and I feel pretty good.

Tomorrow and Friday are forecast to be cooler days of rain and snow.
