So a few weeks ago we
signed up to walk the Moon Walk Marathon in London in May 2013.
This morning was my first
training session and I have to admit, I’m excited to get started.
It’s been difficult to get
the Winchester Wonder Women together for a session as we’ve all been busy. A
few of the girls work full time, one or two work part time, so day time walks
will be left to a few of us, schedules permitting.
I do hope we will work
out some sort of regular
training sessions as a group in the New Year as I think I will prefer walking
with company than on my own.
There’s a few audio book
apps on the iPhone which I might download. If they work with Walk Star (my
fabulous pedometer free app) then that might be fun – walk and listen to a good
book at the same time.
Alternatively, a few
podcasts of Christiane Amanpour from CNN would be good to listen to while
walking, or TEDTalks.
This morning was a simple
walk with Sara – we chatted and walked, and before we knew it, we were THERE.
We’d walked from my place to Winchester and we both felt like we could keep
going so we did.
Sara knew a lovely walk
back by the river and playing fields and then back to the main road and home.
My Walk Star stats for
today:
- Distance: 2.33 miles (3.72km)
- Duration: 1.32 hours
- Calories: 313.9
- Speed: 1.5 mph (2.4 kpm)
- Steps: 9361
- Blisters: 1
We worked out we’d have to
do that exact walk, 11 times to equal the 26 miles we’ve committed to!
All we wanted to do this
morning was have a wee and a drink!
Still, it’s a start
With friendship
