Baby Strides

Hi friends, family and sponsors, I've made a slow start to Stride for Srroke, as I pulled a back muscle last Thursday and it's only just healing now. At least the spasms have stopped. Yesterday I did a walk around the block followed by a stint on our treadmill. Today I did some yoga/Pilates exercises specifically designed for core strength and back care. We then went to Jells Park to meet up with a couple of old friends. I did more talking than walking, but nevertheless some striding across the grass to find a picnic spot proved energising. Onwards and upwards!

Bulleen art walk

Today I was walking on the artists trail opposite 'The Greenery' Bulleen and came across this information about a Swiss painter who migrated to Australia and inspired other Heidelberg artists. His name was Louis Buvelot - a street is named after him in East Doncaster! 

Alphington riverside walk

Today I went on my first long walk with my friend Greg.  We walked from the old paper mills to Darebin Parklands and then in a loop along the Darebin Creek  to the Yarra and back home.  A great 2-hours in a part of Melbourne I have never walked. Loved looking at all the riverside homes and gardens!

Indoor steps

Today being a rainy day I had the luxury of using a treadmill to do my steps and got to listen to an old LP at the same time. Who remembers Boz Scaggs' 'Silk Degrees'? Some really great songs - especially love 'Harbour Lights'.
