Day 156
It is hot out there! Today is an important day, but I started out with a bowl of cereal, and then I went for a walk. I wanted to push myself further than I went yesterday, and I did… to a point. Distance: 5.00 km (4.00 km) Duration: 56:10 minutes (46:17 minutes) Average Pace (Min/km):…

Day 74
Yesterday was my first 10,000 step day in a very long time – possibly as long as 8 months, when I moved back to Canada. I routinely hit that number when I was golfing four times per week. Since returning to Canada, I do not think I have come close. I followed up my walk…
