Good morning gentlemen.
Posting this discussion is the first time I have typed 2021. Wonder how many times I will get that wrong in the coming weeks.
Steady rain all day in the forecast for Tumwater. We'll gear up for our walk, this morning.
Rita totaled up what she recorded on our 2020 kitchen calendar and told me I walked and hiked 840 miles during the year. That sounds like a lot, but it is really kind of disappointing. Hope to do better this year; 1,000 miles, at least. I logged in 36 hikes; again, disappointing. COVID effects.0 -
Good morning.
Yucky day. Almost-freezing rain here now on top of some snow from last night. Making sourdough bread and catching up on bills and stuff. Maybe go out to recycling center to get rid of more old stuff that's broken or I don't need, if roads are not slippery.
Have a good day.0 -
Good Morning
Dave, still impressive numbers. You are a testimony to the benefits of an active and healthy lifestyle. I like that Rita ran your numbers.
Quiet day yesterday. We never went out the door. Today we will try to start taking down the lights weather permitting. We talked about our hopes for 2021. Improved health and activity which I have started working on. A definite return to Yosemite, even if I am limited in hiking and getting out on our bikes like we did before the back crashed 16 mos ago. I fell short on my book reading goal so I will double down this year and stretch for 18. Restarting Obama’s book which I put aside when I hurt my leg before Thanksgiving.0 -
Good Morning!
Dave, 840 miles is still a lot. Great job! My goal for 2021 is 1021 miles walk/run. I'm also participating in the "You vs. Year" on mapmyfitness.com. The competition there is for 1021 km in a year. This is my fourth year in that one. I did beat the year last year.
We had 5.5 inches of snow yesterday. That is the most snow that we have had in maybe two years? I had several errands that I wanted to run today, but maybe not now. I am down to two days stock on my Meloxicam. I would guess by tomorrow the roads will be better. I could get out today if I had to, but if I don't have to is better.
Chores today, and then ? I am making a big pot of ham and bean soup for dinner tonight. I've had the navy beans soaking overnight.
Have a great day!0 -
Oh gotcha Dave. I use to predate a bunch of checks with the New Year to avoid the problem somewhat. My standard for biking in my mind's eye is over 3000 miles. Last year I rode 4,397 miles. If I had checked before the start of the day I might have added another 3 miles just to make it an even 4,400 miles. Just a game. I did ride 355 days so that's good.
840 hiking miles is nice Dave!! Have a joyous day all!0 -
