Exercise

When I was younger, I could walk for hours and it wasn't a problem. Now that I have to walk a mile a day, it's become tedious. I can deal with my calves burning, but i can't deal with my shins burning. Not to mention, my arm hurts so bad that the motion of it swinging back and forth is unbearable.

I love walking, but lately it's become more of a hassle than anything else. I know it's for my own good and I need it to get it out of the house.

It only takes about a half hour of my life, and once it's over I feel accomplished, but the act of starting is unbearable. I don't want to, I come up with excuses, I count things that shouldn't count (cleaning, going shopping, etc.)

Now that I'm injured and I can't work with my residents, I find it harder to do. I don't know if its the incline (an entire street is uphill) or if I just don't want to go by myself, but something is stopping me.

This doesn't seem like a big issue, but walking used to be my sanctuary. Where I could think, feel, just.... be. I preferred to go alone. Now, I hate going alone and I don't know what changed.

Is it because I'm in a new area? Is it because I'm older now? Is it because since I can drive now so I'm not forced to walk everywhere? All the questions, no answers I can give myself.
