    Good luck with the new regimen, sarge...

    I suggest running every day. If you can't run, walk every day. I found that when I was running Tuesdays and Thursdays, it was real easy to start skipping workouts and getting into a funk because they were so spread out. When I was running every day, if I missed a day, I'd just pick up the next day.

    You don't have to become Rocky overnight, either. If you can run a mile, run that mile every day. Pretty soon, you'll start to feel good about running that mile and you can start to add more distance. Most beginners try to bite off more than they can chew and stop working out altogether.

    I also suggest running out and back. If I run on a circular track, I'll stop sooner than I should. But if I run out to a location, I have to get home one way or another.

    You probably already know this, but simply walking (at a minimum) for 30 minutes three times a week will cure a lot of what ails many of the elderly My Dad has the diabetes you pick up from not exercising and a sugary diet. The doctor said, you could have the thing licked if you just ate a little more sensibly, but more importantly, started walking 30 minutes 3 times a week. Now you're in TN, and there's some beautiful terrain out there. I say if the wife is applying the pressure, she'd be more than willing to join you on a nightly walk. Go for 4 times a week for 30 minutes, and shoot smoke your 'gar while doing it.

    It's amazing how what seems like so little exercise can really help. My Dad's friend started walking, he doesn't have to take the diabetes pills anymore to control the insulin.

    Sarge, good luck. Let me know if you need any Hennepin, like you said, Doctor didn't say stop the good liquids. And what's your favorite smoke?
