On spring break with the…

How are you feeling after the shot? I hope you're feeling normal aside of a sore arm! @katmary71 -- no side effects from the shot. I've heard shot #2 for Pfizer is more likely to cause discomfort but still better than having covid from what friends who've dealt with it have told me. Hope no one else has any negative…

Got out and walked in the snow today (no accumulation but still snowing) for 45 minutes. Focusing on walking fast enough to get my heart rate above 125 bpm. Even though it was cold it felt good to finish and I like outside walking compared to the treadmill. Hope everyone has a great week this week.
