Breaking to press on
As I informed of
yesterday, I did not go out for my walk on Sunday and that became a break, in
the streak of walking at least 10,000 steps daily from the 30th of
July. I guess I was demotivated by not getting an acknowledgement of my 100-day
day streak which should have arrived on the 6th or at worst the 7th.
This morning, I was
out of the door at 6:05 AM and I slightly varied my route because the daylight
had not arrived over 4 kilometres into my walk. I was a bit concerned that for
my slow pace that 9’24” per kilometre, my heart rate was in the extreme region
where the maximum heart rate for my age should be 166 beats per minute (bpm).

Of the 1:49:55 hours
I took to complete 11.69 kilometres, 82 minutes were above 149 bpm and peaking
at 184 bpm with the final 27 minutes falling to the anaerobic and aerobic heart
rate stages. I put it down to my apparent lack of sleep overnight where I
barely go 3 hours in.
I then began to
gather the evidence to make a complaint to Huawei about the discrepancies in
the walking records of the last week of November, that aggregated the tally but
was only showing in one day as the average for the week, rather than discretely
tabulating the steps for each day.
Proof, I did it
As I clicked on the
chat button, there was a popup on my phone, the achievement medal I was waiting
for, was delivered, and it indicated I had completed my feat today when it
should have been on Friday. I guess that they have confused the date of attaining the achievement
with the date of the granting the award because my streak was broken yesterday.
However, I am not
complaining that much, the medal has arrived and the next goal that will take a
while is the medal for completing 10 million steps. I wonder if I will have any
legs left by then. Getting an achievement boosts encouragement and helps one
unto higher goals. I hope to be back with more evidence of, It’s walking and it’s
walking.
