Today I fell on/off the treadmill. I wish that I had an awesome story to tell, but I don't. I stepped off the treadmill to quickly take care of something that was distracting me. I guess that I was still distracted becasue I just stepped right back on to the treadmill. I went flying on to the moving belt and into the wall behind me. My calves are badly scraped. My neck and chest are worse mainly because the skin was fully exposed. I must admit that i never imagined this happening. I have a newfound appreciation of the power of this machine!

I am pretty sore from my fall yesterday, but I wanted to make sure that I got back on the treadmill so that I did not face it with trepidation. I know that my paces are probably not considered speed, but I am pleased with the workout. Getting back into shape is a progression. I consider it a win that I worked out.
