    Distances include cycling + walking
    March: 489.8 km (304.3 miles) = 38 hours 4 min
    April: 491.94 km (305.6 miles) = 43 hours 6 min
    May: 361.81 km (224.8 miles) = 35 hours 50 min
    June: 569.53 km (353.9 miles) = 41 hours 53 min
    July: 230.7 km (143.35 miles) = 32 hours 45 min
    Aug: 211.3 km (131.3 miles) = 28 hours 8 min
    Sep: 306.7 km (190.6 miles) = 35 hour 2 min
    Oct: 441.82 km (274.5 miles) = 47 hours 43 min
    Nov: 660.21 km (410.23 miles) = 60 hours 41 min
    Dec: 499.91 km (282.8 miles) = 54 hours 56 min
    Jan: 864.79 km (537.35 miles) = 65 hours 36 min
    Feb: 470.53 km (292.4 miles) = 40 hours 39 min
    I was hoping for 48 hours in Feb, but missed it by 7.5 hours. Too much travelling ... but then again, there's not such a thing as too much travelling. :grin:
    March = Autumn, Easter, My Birthday Month, University + Work

    Looking back at last March, I did 489.8 km (304.3 miles) = 38 hours 4 min of walking and cycling. I'd like to do at least that, and preferably up and over 500 km and 40 hours. :)

    So to begin ...

    Mar 1 - 5.9 km (70 min) walking + 41 flights of stairs (32 min)
    Totals:
    Mar Cycling Outside: 0 km (0 min)
    Mar Cycling Inside: 0 min
    Mar Walking: 5.9 km (70 min)
    Mar Stairs: 41 flights (32 min)
    Mar Time Total: 102 min = 1 hours 42 min
    Mar Distance Total: 5.9 km = 3.66 miles

    Mar 2 - 7.5 km (90 min) walking + 41 flights of stairs (32 min)
    Mar 3 - 1.2 km (15 min) walking + 41 flights of stairs (32 min) + 8.95 km (25 min) cycling
    Mar 4 - 7.3 km (90 min) walking + 15 flights of stairs (12 min)
    Mar 5 - 1.2 km (15 min) walking + 34.54 km (100 min) cycling
    Mar 6 - 100.5 km (315 min) cycling
    Totals:

    Mar Walking: 23.1 km (280 min)
    Mar Stairs: 138 flights (108 min)
    Mar Time Total: 828 min = 13 hours 48 min
    Mar Distance Total: 167.09 km = 103.8 miles
    Mar 7 - 8 km (100 min) walking + no flights of stairs. :cry:

    A minor knee injury ... badly bruised knee and lower ITB after my bicycle fell on it while attempting a balancing act between holding the bicycle and taking a photo.
    Totals:
    Mar Cycling Outside: 143.99 km (440 min)
    Mar Cycling Inside: 0 min
    Mar Walking: 31.1 km (380 min)
    Mar Stairs: 138 flights (108 min)
    Mar Time Total: 928 min = 15 hours 28 min
    Mar Distance Total: 175.09 km = 108.8 miles

    Kinda slowed down a bit to let my knee heal.

    Mar 8 - 4.8 km (60 min) walking
    Mar 9 - 2.7 km (30 min) walking + 10.8 km (35 min) cycling in the dark + lots of Mexican food. Happy Birthday to me! :)

    Mar Time Total: 2220 min = 37 hours 00 min
    Mar Distance Total: 446.8 km = 277.6 miles

    I'll have to add in my distances for 3 more days of cycling, and a bunch of days of walking, but for the moment I'll just mention one of those three days.

    On Saturday 26 March, my husband and I rode a 300 km randonnee ... 300 kilometres in 17 hours and 6 minutes. :)

    This week I had 67 km (41 miles) With today my best day with an 3 hour (fitbit says 18 km) walk to see my husband finish his half marathon.
    Not to bad a week with 53.64 km, this despite a seminar which meant not walking to work one day, but with a nice weekend walk in the forrest I made up for it. Hopefully I will keep it up this week as I again have a seminar (somehow they all fall in March this year)

    This week 51.3 km. Again a seminar that tripped me in getting further. Slightly offset with an extra gym session with full body workout (lots of steps)
    So I am totallying 171.94 so far this month, which means that I am actually getting past January and February much to my suprise

    So surprised but I managed 269,66 km this month which is much more than the previous two months despite work induced changed to my schedule. It did help that this month I did my first long distance walk (20km) and that I joined the gym and started with full body workout classes. Never expected it to have this level of impact on my steps though.
    So proud of myself
