Still more walking

Last month, I signed up to participate in a forty one day Walking Challenge at work.

At first my goal was simply to finish in the Top Five.

I worked really hard to stay in contention while I was visiting Carol in Mississippi.

When I got home, I was in second place. I realized that I might actually be able to win. I decided I really wanted to win.

I redoubled my efforts at home on the treadmill,

at the barn with Sage and...

around the neighborhood with Piper.

I even started going for walks during my lunch break at work instead of sitting the back and scrolling on my phone.

Who knew there was a pretty little trail so close to the store?

I have walked...

and walked...

and walked.

My efforts have paid off. With just over two weeks left to go, I am comfortably in first place.

Here are the actual step totals.

Walking this much is a commitment. It takes a lot of time to get to 27,000 steps. 

While I’ve mostly enjoyed it, there are trade-offs. This blog is one of them. 

Despite having plenty of things to write about, I just don't have enough hours in my day.

This may get worse before it gets better, but either way, the Walking Challenge ends October 5.

After that, I promise, things will get back to normal.
