More Progress of Maz
Ye Saga Continueth… Now having formally discarded the boot, my target is to be walking five miles a day (ok – most days) by Christmas.
Actually, by a sheer co-incidence, a further ten weeks from the second operation takes us to Christmas, so this will be five months from the operation and I am hoping to be back to near normal by then.
So this is my new chart. Starting with this week at one mile – I need to build by half a mile a week to make five miles by Christmas. This is approximately to Inverlounin House and back.
The bad thing about around here from a recouperation point of view is that nearly all the paths are rough or steep or both. After foot fusion you basically have no side to side turning movement in your foot, so you have to compensate for this which is more difficult on rough ground. But if it can be done, I will do it. I have a secret ambition in mind but I am keeping it to myself for now – I bet R would think it was silly and unrealistic if he found out.
Anyway – upwards and onwards. I walked into the village and back today which is very nearly a mile.
