Can I bid for 60 miles running/purposeful walking/cycling.
I'm currently camping and should get some good walking in. Today I did my first run in forever - Misjudged the route, tried to cut off a corner and added a mile!!!
When I get home I'm travelling to Nova Scotia for a week (*excited*) - so I'm not sure what impact that will have.

First, thanks for our wonderful data keepers. You guys are the best. Secondly, thanks for the good thoughts and prayers for my BIL. The man is a walking miracle. He went in with two strokes occurring at the same times on both halves of the brains, seizures and total loss of speech and the right side of his body. It did not look good but our God is greater then man. The ventilator came out the next day, he was speaking and by day two complaining of hospital food and how he is a low carb consumer. They released him to his home today, 5 days after suffering a massive stroke. He will have three days of injections at home to get his INR numbers where they need to be, on Coumadin forever and on high blood pressure meds slowly. People including his brother think we lied about the whole thing. Thank goodness the neurologist and cardiologist are there to back up what we occurred. The many is very fortunate to be here and in this condition.
Adding 200 to start for August. Heading back to work soon and my dad's health issues have been a constant balancing act of preserving his kidneys without him drowning in his own body fluids. Still waiting on my stationary bike since they sent the wrong one.
Starting out August 1 with 10 miles of running 5 and walking 5 miles
TTD: 10 miles

Wow! I can't believe I'm actually posting miles on the first day of the month! LOL! I'm trying to take the time to get on (even this late at night) to check in instead of only 2-3 times a month.
I got in a 4 mile walk this morning before work with my pup. It was quite humid but still a good feeling to get out there early in the morning before my crazy day starts at work.
Hope you all had a great Monday!

Good Morning All! I taught my first tax class yesterday, so with the nerves and then trying to figure out all of the new computer systems we are using as instructors, visiting here yesterday did not happen. I have a love/hate relationship with new systems, I love to learn them and see how they improve over the older systems, but I hate not knowing what I am doing. I know, I know, it will get better, I just need a little time to learn.
I'm going to set my goal at 125 miles for August. It's a little bit of a stretch, but taking a walk when I get frustrated is more constructive than screaming at a computer screen, so that's my plan for now.
Started out the month with a 4.5 mile walk.
@leanz Right now I would welcome the snow, but maybe not the grey cold days that come with it. Stay warm!
@clepant I'm so glad your BIL was able to recover from such a major stroke. I hope he continues to do well. Hang in there with your dad, it is never easy to balance everything out. We spent many hours working with my dad's diabetes, heart and kidney specialists to get his medications worked out so his kidney's weren't too stressed, but his heart was OK and yes, he wasn't drowning in his own fluids. And his blood sugar was under control too. It was a lot of work, but well worth it too.
Have a great Tuesday Everyone! And here's to a successful August for all.0 -
3 mile run for me this morning. Yesterday was yoga so no miles. 3/750
