It has been a long road which has taken a much greater toll on my body than I thought or hoped for.  Constant muscle fatigue in my legs, particularly calves, and I haven't even started running yet! 

Today I signed on with a Physical Therapist ... seems to be knowledgeable and a good guy ... we talked about my goals, more specifically running a BQ in October .  He told me to walk 2 miles a day and come back on Tuesday where he would set me up on a workout routine, which I can do at the local Y. 

I will probably see him twice per week for a month, as he is also doing elecrical stimulation for the neuropathy in my feet.   So I walked my 2 miles, Rockport mile: 13:53 / Recovery Mile:  18:30
