An Uphill Battle

Last week the family took a walk for exercise purposes. We went to Kit Kat's morning bus stop. Momoko had a tough time walking there and back home. She said her legs and back hurt. This was disturbing because we did not walk that far. We did have to walk up a steep hill.

We contemplated how to fix this problem. I figured we should walk more often. I also thought we could take a new path that did not involve steep inclines. Momoko thought we could do swimming instead. That might work in the summer. But we are too busy to go to the swimming pool on a regular basis during the school year.

Today we tried out the new path. Momoko said her legs were fine. Her back still hurt. We only had to stop once on the way home. We plan to walk two more times this week. I hope we can walk a little further the next time.
