"It is impossible to walk rapidly and be unhappy."
Dr Howard Murphy
Despite the cider, prego rolls and chocolate brownies while at the Barbara Kingsolver cocktail last night, I headed out for my speed walk this morning.
One of the preparation instructions is to do one speed walk a week between 6 and 8 kilometres.
So I have a 5 km walk mapped out in our suburb which is a good place to start. The front and back kilometres are normal pace and then I really stepped out and power walked as best I could for 3 km.
- Walking log: 10th February
5 km speed walk.
Total kilometres to date: 224
Update: goodness me, I wanted to weep this morning.
Put my inserts into my walkers with a view to testing them out. I have had them for a few years now and have not been using them.
Well they are in the dustbin.
I walked to Killarney Mall to do some admin. My feet ached and burned the whole way. The inserted gave my blisters on my heels which never give me a problem. I was hobbling by the time I got home. My feet are still sore. So a rest day coming tomorrow and I need to get shoes sorted out very soon.
