Exercised

Exercised today. I have a small field/yard. Started walking around the outer edges. Had to dodge the dog poo! Not sure about distance, but I have had trouble on this area at least twice. It has a small incline. Bad/panic attack can't breathe trouble!!! So it makes it even more satisfying that I can do it. Had to stop at the top and did my pursed lip breathing. Air was good! I was able to exercise!
Have joined the Y but haven't used it. I plan to get with a "coach" and come up with a regimen. Also plan on doing what they call a crash course of pulmonary rehab. I hope they can help also.
Rattlesnake Lodge hike is my new goal. In the spring of 2009 I hiked this trail with my son. In spring of 2010, couldn't go to the top of steps where my daughter had a track meet without stopping multiple times. I want to go there again. I don't want to feel that there is that limitation!!! I may only make it part of the way and it may take a long time. Oh, the satisfaction!!!
