Temperatures are still well below freezing outside, but it was toasty on the treadmill as I did my allotted distance today.
The controls are easy to master, and I soon warmed up...and then got hotter and hotter until I was positively cooking. The treadmill is next to a radiator, and I think I'll have to get into the habit of turning it off before I start exercising.
It looks like we'll have to make a slight adjustment to the belt, as it's running a little too near the left hand side and needs to be more central, but other than it seems pretty perfect, and I'm really pleased with my purchase.
I'm still doing the stretching exercises the physio gave me to do, and I think they're starting to pay off as I'm becoming more flexible. I've never been able to touch my toes, but I can now...just! I'm back with the physio in a week's time, and I hope she'll be pleased with how I'm getting on.
The most exciting part of the day by far was oldest daughter taking her grade 3 flute exam. She's practiced really hard, and she was pleased with how it went. At least the examiner she had this time was friendly and put her at ease. It'll be a long couple of weeks waiting for the result, and I'll let you know what mark she gets.
