Hi Harrison,

I know about the advantages of walking but have problems other than a very slow pace. Walking slow enough for my 86 year old step-dad is not a problem.

I just had another injection in my left foot last week and was admonished to "stay off of it and take it easy" or I would be facing foot surgery. When I had this condition in the right foot it took more than a year to get over and I was very careful. I don't want another operation of any kind right now.

Robby,
We bought a very good elliptical machine several years ago. My husband does use it most of the time when he can't go hiking. I have used it some, it is very boring.

I hope your review goes well.

Terry,
You are an inspiration. I guess if your riding buddy is 71, I shouldn't give up at 56. I will have to wait until Dr. Zigler gives the ok, as he gave it a definate no when I saw him last.

Thanks to you all for your encouragement.

Jane
