raloriaBeen nearly a week and a half since I last walked. *sigh* :(
Three days left at home before VanCon, so I figured I'd better get my legs used to the idea of walking again. It's not nearly the amount of time I would've liked, but what can you do now? *shrugs* At least the weather is nice, with temps in the low 70s, though a little more breeze woulda been nice. Took the big loop in Cherry Park and then the big loop w/out the hill in our neighborhood. Thought of doing more, but by the time I did those loops I knew I was finished. The new gel insoles in my shoes kept my feet from hurting, but my left hip and back were complaining a little. Must be all that poor posture in front of the computer over the past few days from finishing the LL. :P Oh, well. I'll try to walk tomorrow and Wednesday, too, if I can. Have thought of walking Wed. w/ my backpack to simulate the walking conditions in Vancouver. I know that was a big wake-up call for me last year. Didn't take into account that added weight!
Stats from MapMyWalk.com:
Miles = 1.51
