I know that to some of you this may not seem like much, but I am 5 mos post op and did a 13 mile bike ride on Saturday. My oldest son rode with me (he says as a pacer). We finished in 1 hour--and I ride an old 1 speed bike. I have never been a runner or bike rider--my favorite pastime is reading. I did my last (36th) cardiac rehab session today. I did 26 min (246 calories) on the elliptical plus the rest of my workout routine. Those of you who know the elliptical know it is a real workout. Reading about all you runners (and walkers) out there has inspired me. I plan on joining the YMCA tomorrow and getting busy there. Thanks to all of you for the support you have given me.
