Reached Another Goal

1.0454 & 59:24

Can you guess what those numbers represent? That’s 1.04 miles in 59 minutes and 24 seconds! I am thrilled to have met my goal of finishing under an hour, especially while still wearing the walking boot. Once I transition to my new shoe and the pain subsides, I’m aiming to shave at least five minutes off that time.

To calculate my distance, I used the Gmaps Pedometer website. It’s a great tool—I just zoomed into North Star, mapped out my laps at the church parking lot across the street, and it did the math for me.

Adjusting the Routine 

On Sunday, I tried splitting the distance into two half-mile walks, finishing with a total time of 50:56. Today, however, I really struggled with the final four laps of my full-mile attempt. To manage the foot pain and "play it safe," I’ve decided to stick with the two half-mile sessions for now.

I have a few more things to get to, so I’ll head out for now!
