Santiago, what a little go-getter you are! You inspire me!.... To type words like 'go-getter'... lol
People! The mosquitoes down here are like small helicopters! OMGoodness, they are just horrible. It's so hard to imagine that our friends to the west are going thru a severe draught and around my place, standing water is EVERYWHERE. Why didn't Noah swat those 2 mosquitoes??? HA!

I'm glad I can inspire someone to type....lol
I have a FitBit and I'm usually in challenges wit other FitBitters so that is definitely why my miles have been so high! Also, I have a wedding dress to fit into next year, so I have plenty of motivation

Hey I'm a Firbitter too! And nothing like wedding bells to kick the motivation up a notch. Congrads to you!
Jahmanrv, don't get down on yourself. You've had some setbacks but I so admire that you've stayed here with us even though your numbers aren't where you want them to be. It'll come.0 -

April
01 Wed - 3.7 km walking
02 Thurs - 1.8 km walking
03 Fri - 8.5 km walking + 40.52 km cycling
04 Sat - 3.8 km walking + 35.23 km cycling
05 Sun - 0 km walking + 40.11 km cycling
06 Mon - 2.4 km walking
07 Tues - 1.5 km walking
08 Wed -
Sub-total: 21.7 km walking (13.5 miles) + 115.86 km cycling (72 miles)
Our long, long Easter holiday gave my husband and me the chance to cycle in old familiar territory ... where we used to live. Miss that place!! And down here, the leaves are turned colour but there is still a lingering warmth. It's autumn.
08 Wed - 7.14 km walking
09 Thurs - 5.4 km walking
10 Fri -
Sub-total: 34.24 km walking (21.3 miles) + 115.86 km cycling (72 miles)
Back to chilly Tasmania. Seems like winter has already started here.
10 Fri - 5 km walking
11 Sat - 82.67 km cycling
Sub-total: 39.24 km walking (24.4 miles) + 198.53 km cycling (123 miles)
Overcast, a bit windy with a high today reaching a chilly 15C (that's 60F or somewhere around there I think).
On my ride yesterday ...
12 Sun - 11.7 km walking
Sub-total: 50.94 km walking (31.6 miles) + 198.53 km cycling (123 miles)
We were going to go canoeing now that we have our canoe out of storage, but the wind kicked up and there must have been a storm in the Southern Ocean because there was quite a bit of swell. Instead, we opted to go for a hike.
13 Mon - 4.2 km walking
14 Tues - 4 km walking
Sub-total: 59.14 km walking (36.7 miles) + 198.53 km cycling (123 miles)
15 Wed - 3.1 km walking
16 Thurs - 4.4 km walking
17 Fri - 3.2 km walking
18 Sat - 92.32 km cycling
19 Sun - 19.05 km cycling
Sub-total: 69.84 km walking (43.4 miles) + 309.9 km (192.56 miles)
Saturday's ride was a tough one that included hills, wind, more wind, continued wind, a sudden weather change from reasonably warm to freezing cold and rainy ... the wind swung around to be a full-on headwind just then ... and because I had twisted my ankle shortly before the ride, it was giving me some trouble the hill/wind combos where I was really pushing.
Sunday's ride was a walk-in-the-park by comparison.
Great scenery both days.
20 Mon - 2.2 km walking (25 min)
21 Tues - 4.85 km walking (60 min)
22 Wed - 6.6 km walking (80 min)
23 Thurs - 2.8 km walking (75 min)
24 Fri - 3.1 km walking (35 min)
25 Sat - 48.65 km cycling (150 min) ... hilly ride.
26 Sun - 25.6 km cycling (75 min)
Sub-total: 89.39 km walking (55.5 miles) + 384.15 km (238.7 miles)
2312 min = 38 hours 32 min
And in other news ... I did some research, then did some experimenting, and came up with a delicious low-cal French toast. Yum-yum! My husband even like it. This may seem like nothing to some of you ... but I am not any sort of cook. He does all the cooking ... if I'm on my own, the best I can do is to assemble food (i.e. make a sandwich). I've never made French toast before, and I had no idea how that process would go, let alone the fact that I was using low-cal almond milk which I've never used before either. But it worked!!
27 Mon - 4 km walking (50 min)
28 Tues - 4 km walking (50 min)
Sub-total: 97.39 km walking (60.5 miles) + 384.15 km (238.7 miles)
