I remember so well that day in early April when I was taking an urban hike in Bloomington, Illinois and how much pain and discomfort I felt. The last two miles of that hike were painful and proved to me finally that something was wrong with me. I spent two hours keeping ice on my abdomen thinking that would help. Ice is not the cure for a hernia. Rest is not the cure for a hernia. Only surgery is the cure for a hernia. It was less than one week ago when I had my surgery. I have followed the advice of my doctor and I have not lifted anything weighing more than 15 pounds. I have also followed the advice that I could walk as much as I pleased as long as I felt no pain or discomfort. Yesterday, I 'walked' nine miles on the treadmill. It was a bonafide workout. My speed was set to 4.2 miles per hour - which is very close to my top speed of 4.5 mph. After two sessions of 65 minutes each - I had accumulated 9 miles. It felt so good to be breaking a sweat.
