    Year 2 of step challenge. Age 61 + desk job M-F ~ I take hourly stairs breaks (3 floors) at work. Step goals lower since switching to treadmill due to winter road conditions (snow & ice not dog walk friendly): daily average 12,000 steps + total 375,000. I'm a walker, not a runner ~ next race Seroogy's Valentine 5K on Feb. 9.
    Previous Months:

Beat both goals: time 48:13 & hill 2:01 :star: with portions of trail wet & muddy due to 5" rain in preceding week. Looking at overall results, fastest hill times (king & queen of the hill) were 0:44 and 0:55, and only 25 out of 267 participants finished the hill in < 1 minute. :o
