Aside from one day it was raining too hard, I have been walking the 1.3 KM return trip to the mailbox every mail day (5 days a week) Since June 15. I have to admit the first day was more of a struggle than I like to admit as I had trouble walking a straight line and actually sat down on a park bench half way back home.
Now, I am blasting through it with no problem, am walking straight with a good pace and feel no need to rest part way. It is a revelation!
I am now wondering how I can increase my distance. There is a seaside park a bit further along so today I just might continue right past the mailbox and try for the park. Google maps says it is a 15 minute walk each way for a 2.4 KM return trip. Man, I am getting healthy, I wonder how much I weigh?
Oops, they are calling for rain this afternoon. It may or may not show up. If it is not raining I will head out with my phone so I can call for a ride back if needed. What's a little rain?
Edit: I corrected the mileage. A little problem with Google Maps.

ReplyDeleteExcellent! This can only lead to better health.
ReplyDeleteThe more walking you do the better you will feel, and the further you can go. Keep up the good work. I try for at least 5 to 10 kms a day and feel awesome! Plus loose weight as well a real bonus.
