Already a difference

My toe abscess sidelined me for about six weeks.  As a result of being more sedentary than usual, my legs atrophied a bit.

About a week ago, I went for my first walk around the block since before the abscess.  After the first minute or so, I was breathing hard and my legs felt tight.  A few minutes later, though, my breathing settled down and my legs loosened up.

I've gone for a couple more walks around the block since then.  I already feel stronger and looser.  It doesn't take much exercise to make a noticeable difference.

My hope is that I can finish 2020 in better shape than that in which I began it.
