    I gott'a ask... what's the difference betweeen hike and walk? :smile:

    Walking is on sidewalks, hiking is in the woods :wink:

    Waiking must be walking on sidewalks in the woods...:laugh:

    You get awarded a lot more calorie burn for hiking. Is it hiking if I walk on the dirt/grass next to the sidewalk? :laugh:

    I only call it hiking if I'm on a wilderness trail. But sometimes the extra burn seems unearned.

    Recovering from the marathon took longer than I expected. I'm only 12-for-22 on my daily goals and am also quite behind the pace for the monthly goals as well. I expect to get to 500K steps for the month but probably not much beyond that.

    10/18 - 3789 (after two busy days, I couldn't do any more)
    10/19 - 14820
    10/20 - 15091
    10/21 - 2924 (after two more days of pushing, I decided I needed a couple REAL rest days)
    10/22 - 3802
    10/23 - 10114 (trying to get back on track with a gentle walk)

    I'm having a really rough mid-October. I came down with a respiratory infection on 10/15... right on the eve of my 15th wedding anniversary and the special trip we had long been planning. Over the next few days, I pushed myself to 'enjoy' our trip, but just ended up sicker. Finally, I forced myself to take some real rest on Sunday and Monday. I feel a bit better, but even walking is wearing me out. I get so fatigued and winded. I think it's going to take me a while to feel completely back to normal. :sick:

    I guess my average is still 12,278, so maybe I shouldn't be that hard on myself?

    10/21 - 12,768 Short hike and long walk

    I gott'a ask... what's the difference betweeen hike and walk? :smile:

    Walking is on sidewalks, hiking is in the woods :wink:

    Waiking must be walking on sidewalks in the woods...:laugh:

    You get awarded a lot more calorie burn for hiking. Is it hiking if I walk on the dirt/grass next to the sidewalk? :laugh:

    I only call it hiking if I'm on a wilderness trail. But sometimes the extra burn seems unearned.

    The trails in the woods usually have more rocks and hills than the sidewalks around my house.

    I will def try try the grass for a calorie bump on my next walk:wink:
