Milestone: Five

Post by NoelFigart » Sat Aug 18, 2012 11:14 pm

I'm sure you hard core urban rangers would probably find this a little wimpy, but I just walked five miles.

This is kind of a big deal for me, as there was a time when my calf would cramp up from one.

I was walking 20 minute miles, so yeah, it took me awhile, but YA!

I think in general, this will be a weekend recreation thing for me rather than something I do every day, but still, it was kind of cool.

I think anyone in the U.S. should consider walking 5 miles a respectable accomplishment.
