Training - Sort of - for a Hike - Jan 2011

I started walking more in December 2010 to break-in my new prescription orthotices. I have a 2 mile route around my neighborhood streets that goes up and down a couple of moderate hills.


During January 2011, I walked 4 miles each day or a total of 124 miles. I started out in February with 5 days of 4 miles each and then went to 6 miles a day. I did 6 miles a day for the next 5 days. I was feeling good so went to 8 miles for the next 2 days. I have gotten where I want to walk 8 miles one day and 10 miles the next day.


I am walking 2 miles in 40 to 45 minutes. I walk every day no matter what the weather happens to be like. I will update my mileage every day or so.


January - 2011 - Mileage Total - 124 miles
