At age 72, I am planning to walk across American to bring awareness of how exercise etc. can help bring about a healthier heart and vascular system, lower blood pressure, etc., and to raise funds, as well, for the American Heart Association. I welcome you to follow me on my journey! My plan for 2010 is to walk from Lewes, DE to St. Louis, MO or further if possible. In 2005 I was leading a sedentary life and weighed 201 lbs. I started walking and then running and lost 36 lbs, significantly lowered my blood pressure, my bad cholesterol, and raised my good cholesterol equally. My journey will commence on or about April 30th. Help the A.H.A. by donating thru the web site: Michianaheartwalk.kintera.org/johnwalksamerica. If all goes well I hope to be in St. Louis sometime in September 2010.

Wednesday and Thursday the 23rd and 24th




Today is our anniversary. 51 years of marriage (to the same people). Had an interview on WTCA AM1050 yesterday. I think it went well, but that is not for me to say. Now have poison ivy on my arms and, believe it or not, on the bottom of my right foot. How that got there I do not know. Another doctor visit today for results of a CT Scan. Only added 3 1/2 miles.
