You know those blog posts that pop up after several weeks of nothingness where the blogger apologises profusely for the lack of activity and promises to post something every 28 minutes from now on to make up for it? Well this is absolutely not one of of those. Uhuh, no siree. No way at all. The fact that I haven’t actually posted anything for a while but will be doing so much more often from now on is just a magical coincidence…..*cough*

The truth is that I haven’t really been walking so haven’t had a lot to blog about, you know, walking wise. I’ve been driving a lot and sitting on my arse a lot and as fascinating as those subjects are I didn’t feel the need to shout about them in a walking blog. Perhaps I should start a blog on each of those subjects though? I really would be posting every 28 bloody minutes then…..
My regular readers *waves* will know my grand plan of walking 2 hours every day in 2009 was disappointedly cut short on what seemed like the 2nd day of January by a chest infection from hell. Looking back, it seems I had a touch of untreated bronchitis which developed in exercise-induced asthma and I’ve been enjoying the glamorous world of chest x-rays and inhalers ever since. Attempts at walking more than 50 feet have seen me either wheezing like an old bagpipe or seriously fighting for breath so a decent daily walk has really been out of the question. However, after a bit of trial and error I’m now on a Seretide inhaler twice a day which is definately helping, yay!
I’d like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who been emailing to make sure I’m still alive including the Goddess-like Shauna at Dietgirl who remains a major inspiration. I’m ready to begin the challenge again so expect LOTS of posts about blisters, bad weather and lack of sleep when I’m out and about at 6am to fit the walking in. You lucky people



Yikes sorry to hear about your asthma hassles! Hope you are on the mend soon. Great to see you back in blog land
