Not-At-All-Pointless Poll: Re Exercise
As I reported last entry, I need to exercise regularly, and I'm doing something about it, as

supergee has for years and

womzilla now is. Even many of the rats run on wheels, though far from all!

Tonight I did fifteen minutes for the second time, and it got less enjoyable around ten minutes--actually, around eight minutes, but I can't see using less than five-minute increments. I did make it to fifteen minutes without any problems. However, I'm wondering if I might be more tempted to do this every day, as I need to, if I didn't have that strenuous last five minutes. Mind, my goal is 45 or fifty minutes; however, I am happy to work up to it gradually rather than overdoing. Yet is less than fifteen minutes worth doing, and/or is some tiredness necessary for more stamina?

I'm lazy but cheered: my bg was 160 before treading, 120 afterwards.
