    All of August should (hopefully) be like the last 2 weeks in July, with walks replacing morning runs and still walking whenever I can in the afternoon. Thus I'm bumping my goals upward to 500k steps and 200 miles walking. While I'm certain those numbers are realistic I have little history to guide me as to whether they're over/under estimated.

    Best wishes to all this month!

    I welcomed 100+ new students into my classroom Tuesday and submitted another chapter of my dissertation, so it’s been a busy week! But today I made it to the gym. My goal for August is 65 miles on the elliptical.

    8/5: 4.22
    AUGUST GOAL: 4.22/65
