Biloxi Bay Bridge 0.7-mile plaque
celebrates part of local history.
Mile-marker 0.7
Thanks to walking
buddies Ann and Pat for bridge-walking therapy and their contribution to my
reaching the 0.7-mile marker on the Biloxi Bay Bridge. That is my farthest
point on the bridge so far in my stroke recovery and translates to more than
1.4 mile round trip!
Other bridge-walking milestones
that I don’t want to forget:
Oct. 2—Passing mile marker
0.5 with walking buddy Ann
One-half mile means a round trip of more than one mile.
Bridging the Bay
Oct. 4—The day’s
bridge walk with Pat included passing the 0.6-mile marker as well as the
0.7-mile marker.
0.6-mile marker
Improved gait takes
me past the gator at mile-marker 0.6.
Woohoo!
My goodness that must be a long bridge...:)
ReplyDeleteThe mile markers are extraordinary. How long is that bridge, that it needs markers?
ReplyDeletecongrats to you, further and further you go. i love these markers and especially that gator marker, he looks friendly to me
ReplyDeleteI agree the markers are gorgeous and are good rewards for a walk well done. I too want to know how long that darned bridge is.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm all caught up with your posts now! I've left you some comments.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I'm so proud of your walking accomplishments! You go girl :) I love those mile-markers, by the way!
What a great achievement! A little more each time. I am proud of you, Linda. Go for more!
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed with your bridge walking distance! The markers are, indeed, intriguing. Glad you're continuing to motivate your bridge therapists to exercise to keep them in shape.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should write an article with some pictures to submit to the American Heart Association's "Stroke" magazine. Your story might be of interest to them.
I keep thinking about the walk back. I did a lot of walking in San Diego and always remembered I must walk back before I run out of steam. Used wheel chairs at the air port and felt guilty, but it helped a lot. Dianne
