@Tart Cherry Jam You are killing it with exercising!

I did my power walk this morning, but I took a different route, and oh, boy, I ended up on Winding Trail. The brilliant people who named the roads in my subdivision created Winding Road, Winding Street, and Winding Trail. As predicted, all these roads wind. Even worse, they start back up again pretty much randomly across the drainage slough that divides my subdivision east & west. I have never gotten the gist of these winding roads even after living 20 years in this subdivision. Some of these roads dead-end and all the others are pretty much guaranteed to come out at a crossroad I don't know very well. It's hard for me to use maps on my phone to get out of these predicaments because I need reading glasses to see my phone clearly so I just end up sometimes walking in circles and oh boy, did I ever this morning, it was over 8 miles! I should always just turn around when I get to one of the Winding roads, but I always think I must know exactly how to get out after living here for so long, but I am always wrong.

Anyway, I can do forearm planks again, so I've been practicing those. I can't do the high planks yet, it's too much on my wrist, so that pretty much guarantees my wrist isn't ready for pilates just yet. Maybe by next Monday or Tuesday.
