Movin’ on Up

Days 7 of Virtual Walk Around the Triad to Benefit Second Harvest

Activity Day 7: So that weekend house-move in Florida that I missed came to me. Spent last evening moving boxes, furniture, etc. and running around in general.

Miles walked/run: 4.22 miles. Here’s the screenshot from my FitBit:

Miles remaining in challenge: 330.13. My first week I averaged 5.26 miles/day, which is a little behind the pace I need to make my goal. Time to ramp it up!

Miles walked/run: 3.07 miles. Here’s the screenshot from my FitBit:

When Life Throws a Curve, Head to the Lake

Days 4&5 of Virtual Walk Around the Triad to Benefit Second Harvest

Activity Day 4: When your better half has an unexpected and kinda scary medical event you don’t do anything but take care of her, so that’s what I did.
Activity Day 5: I was supposed to be in Florida helping my mom pack up her house, but due to the events of Day 4 she recruited someone else. So I made sure my better half was in solid shape and headed to Salem Lake for a walk/run.

Miles walked/run: 12.72 miles. Here’s the screenshot from my FitBit:
