Okay so I didnt have to do the canal run jog walk today But I got a new pedometer so of course I had to use it!! I just did a really good brisk walk instead of my normal run (ok I did sneak one jog in there- it didnt feel right otherwise). But the main purpose was to use the pedometer and kind of figure out how far Im actually going on a regular basis. So the results are much better than I expected them to be - awesome right! So the steps equalled 3032 and the mileage is 1.24 ,the calories are counted as/for a walk and that landed at 186. So with this information I have also posted pictures of the old check point. Which is that beautiful creek. And two new pictures of the goal which is the other bridge at the other end of town. So right now Im basically doing halfway - I start at one bridge about halfway then turn around so the original long term goal is to go from bridge to bridge. Which I am still working on I am actually going past my midpoint check so it is a slow progress. The final destination goal is to be able to jog from one bridge to the other and then back again. But Im completely aware that this will take time and I am willing to put that time in I just love and need the encouragement and support that you guys have all given me so far as I continue on this journey! Yes this is a task for myself but I love knowing and sharing all of this with everybody else - that I actually have people behind me that I wasnt entirely sure that I had and Im blessed and very thankful for that and I hope you all understand and know how important you are in this progress and in this accomplishment as well. Im sorry this is so long it was not intended to be but I will leave you with this (and sorry I dont have the ref on hand)... there are times when I feel like Moses at the start where he holds his arms up and then there are days I feel weak and Im falling shorts that you all have a way -- you are all there holding my arms up for me as his supporters helped him as well! THANK YOU EVERYONE!!! Your support is felt more than you know!
