I'm one crazy dude. I ran out of gas for the pump and the wife has our only vehicle -- out of town visiting her mother -- who is in failing health. Anyway, she won't be back until tomorrow evening so rather than waste 24 hours not pumping I grabbed the 5 gallon gas can and hoofed it into town by foot. 2 miles there and 2 miles back. A cop with radar really looked me over as I walked past. I figured if he questioned me on the way back I'd ask him if he thought I was speeding.
Not bad for a 55 year old. I was really moving out on the way there but a little slower with about 3 gallons of gas on the way back.
Though it doesn't feel like it when your walking it's good for you. Even I take daily walks through the woods around our house. MY best buddy Is 70 years old and I told him that he had to stay around awhile longer, that means getting a little more active and eating better. so now he, and I walk the rr tracks together every day. He's told me how much better he feels his back doesn't hurt and he has more energy.
