A Day On A Path
Well, I finished week six at 25.37 trail miles. So far, 111.91 trail miles.
And now on to Week Seven: the 5.5 mile week.
Today, 6/30, 5.64 miles on Tomahawk Creek. Pretty much on schedule, but haven’t been walking as many days in a week as I had anticipated. But it’s getting easier. Today was overcast and temps were only in the 80s – that helped immensely!
Tomahawk Creek starting at the Leawood Pool park.
Week of 6/8
Skipped the 3.5 mile week and went on to this 4.0 mile week. Goal – Walk five 4.0 mile days.
Week of 6/1 – 2.3 miles
Oops. Didn’t walk this week! 3 rain days, 2 sick days, 1 lazy day, 1 short day
Week of May 25 14.7 miles
It was a short week since Sunday and Monday were rained out. I don’t pay attention to steps in a day – I only count trail distance. Walking around Costco or up and down steps to the basement laundry is not what’s going to get me up the side of the mountain to
O Cebreiro!
There’s the 1.5 mile marker turnaround point.
Week of May 18
Six walking days – 15.32 miles
Decided to eat humble pie and use my sticks. I could tell a few differences: didn’t need to watch the ground so closely- improved posture, cadence was more uniform, could tell pressure was less on my hip joints. And my brain perked up. Oh! I remember this. We’re walking!
