All this time I thought my "secret spot" walk in the woods was 3.5 miles. Today, I took the time to zero out my pedometer and take it with me and found that the walk is REALLY 4.2 miles!!! WoooHOOO! Boy did I do the happy dance. All this time I've been walking/running a half mile more than I thought I was. This was a real gift to boost and encourage me right now. cool0012.gif cool0012.gif cool0012.gif Happiness and joy, life is good!

Wow! This is sort of like Meliss figuring out her actual age. You women are crazy!!!

This one is the park service's fault, not mine--honest! They have very old, falling down signs out there and they're kind of confusing about what points they are actually referring to. That's why I decided to take my pedometer today. An extra .8 every day for 2 years, and I've been doing it in 50 minutes. I think I'm READY for February's 5K, don't you???

But yeah, Sarge you're right. Meliss and I are both certifiable nuts and that's just ONE of the reasons you love us....Right Meliss!???

Good grief!!! I too would take all the encouragement I could get. How nice that you didn't find out you were walking LESS than you thought! This is a great kick start for your 5-K! I don't see you having any problem unless you get sidetracked along the route. cool-smiley-013.gif

Hey Lady Filbert. This littel peanut loves you.

Certifiable, yes but that is part of your charm. This is a great find. And I know you will rock that 5k! cool0012.gif
