Yep your right and today ends the last we will be in the forwards and backwards date. Will never get another May of these either.
You probably know what I'm talking about but incase. Since May 10th the date is the same forward and backward... 51015 or 51015.. 51115 or backwards is 51115.. 51915 or 519150 -
HA! Steve, I LOVE you! Omgoodness, I thought I had the only incredibly weird brain that thought of such inane, yet quite interesting, things such as this! I love it, I just love it! Dude, we could jack some thought processes around here.
Maybe we're not the only ones.... (insert The Twilight Zone jingle) lol
Happy Tuesday, guys! We won't get another Tuesday this week so make the best of this one... Ok ok I'll stop!

Thanks ... but I'm no spring chicken anymore.

Yea that kinda throws things for a wack! Congrats by the way on your longest bike ride the other day!0 -
G'morning guys! You all are smashing this thing. How exciting! Jeannie, you are very close to goal. Wait, is your goal 100? or did you jack it up to 150? I forget... Either way, you're dusting it.

Had a fabulous weekend away in Edinburgh, walked around town, up and down hills for 2 days, but no real idea of the distance. If anyone is going to Edinburgh I thoroughly recommend the World War 1 exhibition in the National Portrait Gallery, it had me in tears.
Weather since then has been crazy, it has chucked it down, thunder and lightning and hail, so no cycling.
May to date - 113 miles.

doesn't look like 100 miles should be at all difficult for you given your results so far!! Great job!!
me:
Cycling - 4.75/10 hours (49 miles so far)
Walking - 27.5/50 miles (includes anything above 1 mile showing on my fitbit)
Swim - 30/100 laps
Lindy Hop class - 3/4 times
Total miles 76.5
Had a much less confidence-bashing dance class last night. I don’t feel too bad about holding myself back in class level as I was really concentrating on getting the form right. A big smile at the end of the class.
I'm picking up my new bike (yup, extravagance, but with the cycle to work scheme savings I'd be a fool not to!!) tomorrow so will have a play on that, plus walking with a friend in Pembrokeshire over the weekend. Added to that I’ve got three days on on-site surveys in gardens to do so plenty of scope for getting in some walking miles! Exercise by stealth – that’s how I like it.

@mandybaker100, I would love to see Edinburgh one day. So glad you experienced that. And @jeanniewes, I'm with you. These posts are so great and uplifting! Thanks to all of you guys.
Ok, so yesterday I ran off and forgot my Fitbit!! GRRRRRR! If I didn't live so far from work, I would have ran home to get it. But no, running home would have meant STAYING home. lol NOT coming back to the office a 2nd time in one day. Not happening! Giving myself a very modest 3 miles... sigh...
