Why the excitement on this day between storms? Today marks the one year anniversary of when I started walking. Ah no big deal to you but a big one to me. Granted when I look back in my journal its not like I just did it every day. February wasn't stellar and neither was March but eventually it started becoming part of my life. Something I miss when I go a couple of days without a walk. I have walked over 530 miles in the past year and those are just the ones I kept track of. There might be more but I know there aren't less. What there is less of is me. A little over 37 lbs less of me. I am glad I made this decision and I hope to continue it. I walked 4 miles today and what is more amazing is this is the third time this week I walked 4 miles. It sure is tiring but considering a year ago I thought when I walked that first mile it was the end of me and I would be found dead in a ditch. 4 miles ain't bad.
Being more active opens a whole other world. More woods, trails, paths, cellar holes and pockets to fill. I am looking forward to the eventual warming of the weather so I can start going further afield. The world is full of dirt roads and I mean to walk down a few of them.
