Exercise Log
Fever broke last night, so I'm officially healthy today. I'm at work. So I took an exercise break!
Today I managed to go once around the building (left turns). The camber is really getting to me -- the way the parking lot is done, going straight ahead with the building on my left is a continuous left turn. It seems I'm braking on the one side as much as I'm pushing on the other. Steering by differential braking is going to be something I learn early. Already the brake mechanism itself is becoming a little more natural for me.
Already, too, I'm a LOT faster in this thing than I am when I'm walking. (On level ground, anyway!) Once my arms get a little more used to this I'm going to be very very tempted to bring it in the building and use it all day.
Right turns tomorrow. If I think ahead I'll time myself. I may wash the wheels, too, at least the part I grab to make myself go. It's grubby enough that I came back inside with dark gray/brown palms.
- Time: ???
- Right arm is screaming at me, left doesn't care
- Mild sweat
- Embarrassment diminishing -- met a coworker, and he just mentioned the weather (phew)
- Current goal: able to go once around without feeling tired
