First run of the new year 6.61 miles in 1 hour 5 minutes. It is a beutiful day for running. Now we need more snow, to have some great skiing days.

walked, 1 mile, 30 minutes

Whew! It's been a rough 7 months but I did a small stint on
my treadmill today. Whoopee! 10 minutes at 2.3mph because at 2.5mph my back thought it needed to have a spasm party. No bueno.

Baby steps.

hoping you get out of this terrible flare......and soon! hugss

you've been my inspiration, just wish what you've taught me would start working again for you:

off of work the last 2 weeks, so sleeping more.......
the days i sleep too long, i wake feeling a flare coming on,
but i jump in the shower,
then down the vitamin C and fish oil,
get out for a walk (1-1.5 miles, whatever i can do, and on the bad days, i take my camera so i walk and stop and walk and stop and really pace myself),
then come in and eat as much "antiinflammatory food" as i can think of,
after about 6 hours of being up, i finally feel like the flare is being aborted......

then i go to sleep and the process repeats itself.........
combatting this "naturally" sure is a lot of work!

but i often think of you (and others) as i do the various tricks everyone here has taught me heart

Donette,
My prayer is that you can keep on walking and get the flare on the run! I shoveled snow at the church for one hour, sunday afternoon.
My back never did stop throbbing but it was such a bright clear day!!!
I am trying to walk faster, because some days 20 minutes is all I can do no matter how fast i walked..

when I fail....I am pulled
back into place by HIM.

Hi everybody.
I have been flare free for 4 years 10 months +/-. It has been great. You can really enjoy the good times ONLY after you have had bad times. In my experience this is true.

I am so lucky to have had this time... But now a flare started to kick in on 31st December. 3 days in pain ow! Not at all serious but I have my fingers crossed to get back to the good old days of pain free living.

Erica- I am glad that you are out walking again... just have to enjoy the good times when you can....

yesterday: we never did get the lake effect snow that we were supposed to get (a dusting only instead of the 6+ inches we were in for) but it was COLD (10 degrees).

but bundled up well and walked with hubby. plus mostly sunny and no wind. so it really didn't feel that cold.

walked 1.5 miles, 30 minutes
