We three had never seen some of the park's new trails, so we had an enjoyable walk on grass trails on the other side of the park.

We walked for about 45 minutes, no telling the distance, but we weren’t moving very fast. I felt about the same as yesterday, not much pain and very happy to be out there. This is day 9 since the hernia surgery, and it feels better every day.

Elliptical trainer, 2.5 "miles" in 30 minutes, 265 calories. I "ran" at a reduced pace and reduced resistance level, with no pain.
