More walk than talk
I would be the first
to tell you that not every day of the last 40 since I started my walks around
Manchester as my exercise routine has had me excited and rearing to go, for I
have been tired, the weather inclement, and the drive expired, yet, I have
persevered.
This evening, after a
night of barely 4 hours of sleep, I wanted to fall into bed after work and
dream, and snore and enter the realm of deep sleep for longer than I had
managed before, I could not because I felt my walk was important and I only had
to make my 10,000 steps.
Numbers up and down
In that time, I have
done 657,850 steps and my recorded exercises have stretched over 446
kilometres, but those are just figures, my figure according to Brian is
changing, not that I can see myself, though last week I found I had lost 4
inches about 10 cm off my belly and I am today, exactly 6 kilogrammes lighter.
I guess the greatest
feat in all this was on the 5th of September when twice I managed
sub 8-minute kilometres, even to my surprise at 7’56”, I am not looking to
break records, I am happy with keeping it under 9’30”, though I can
consistently keep it under that. I will keep at it, I think just by the
results, it is a good investment in both health and wellbeing at 54.
