Getting some exercise

[Lesley Walker]

I'm particularly pleased with myself for spending an hour and a half
out walking yesterday (although I didn't walk the whole time, I stopped
and looked at things). I've blogged about it at
http://walkinguphills.blogspot.com/.

yes it really works

my last big walk I did slowly but non stop
http://slim2005.blogspot.com/2005/10/brumleby-autumn.html

when I walked it in August I had to sit down lots of times

168.2 Kg last week

today 164.6 kg 363 lbs or 25 stone 13lbs

down 3.6 kg or 7 lbs 14 oz

to be healthy I need to halve this but I will settle for 100 kg in a
year or two

cheers

Yes, I've been following your blog, and I thought that was a pretty
good achievement. What's the terrain like? I don't know a lot about
Denmark, but it looks esentially flat in your snaps (not much of that
around here). Interesting pictures of bicycles, too, I particularly
liked the one with the sheep.

I'm trying to focus on doing some walking every day, getting better but
haven't really got the habit back yet. It's complicated by living at
the uphill end of a dead-end street, which means that if I don't want
to finish with a tough climb, I have to drive somewhere first. But on
the other hand that gives me the excuse to go to all the nice parks and
reserves that I enjoy so much.

Bravissimo! That's great progress for just one week.

Denmark is FLAT and this route is very flat - by the sea within 1 km
wholeway

now my back has said CLICK so I have to slow down and move and sit
carefully
so dropped my plan to wlak to stations and do the 39 steps up and down
twice

I found a Macintosh classic in the skip yesterday and got given an old
Quadra so getting too many Mac in my museum - 2 in one day. six in
total

carrying things is also a good exercise
