    Good to see goals being met / assignments written / new running distances made and holidays had!

    I'm back from Cornwall - lots of coastal path walking (my '30 mins minimum' was often over an hour of uppy downy enjoying the sea views, but also eating for England..I'll leave a weigh in for a few days!.) and the Cotswolds. Lost a couple of days to travel etc.

    350 cals burned or more: 12 out of 31. Good.
    Atleast over 30 mins: 15 out of 31
    Lazy/rest days: 4 out of 31

    Good to note that I was way fitter than most of my Cornwall friends... Just the guy who does a short swim every day was striding out with me at my pace along the coast path....

    We're thinking of getting a dog.....

    Review ...
    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
    March: 917.73 km (570.2 miles) = 66 hours 13 min
    April: 417.83 km (259.6 miles) = 40 hours 23 min

    April wasn't a brilliant month for me in terms of exercise ... I had hoped to do one or two longer bicycle rides but sometimes life intervenes in the plans. April ended up being an incredibly busy month with a heavier-than-usual workload at work + assignments due at university + the final steps of my citizenship process. I wrote the citizenship exam and then my ceremony was on April 29 and I am now officially an Australian Citizen! :):)

    May should be a calmer month, although I will be wrapping up the uni course I'm in so there will be work to do for that. Nevertheless, I hope for more kilometres than last May. :)

    _______________________________

    May is the last month of Semester 1 of University here = big assignment due. So, a lot of my time was spent doing that.
    May is also late autumn = cool, rainy
    And in early May we spent a weekend in Sydney for a cycling conference ... without our bicycles!!

    So with all that in mind ...


    Totals:
    May Cycling Outside: 179.69 km (560 min)
    May Cycling Inside: 120 min
    May Walking: 87.4 km (1050 min)
    May Stairs: 550 flights (440 min)
    May Time Total: 2170 min = 36 hours 10 min
    May Distance Total: 267.09 km = 165.9 miles


    I suppose one highlight is that I exercised an hour more this May than last May. Not sure how I managed that ... must be all those stairs. And speaking of which, 550 flights of stairs is a total of 11,000 stairs. :)

    Just looked at my stats - 59/60 miles of walking or running!!! I missed that target by ONE mile!!!

    Having said that, May for me involved a fair amount of illness (a stinking cold for a week or two, a four day migraine) so all things considered, not too shabby!!

    Here's to June!!??
