So I made an excuse Tuesday for not walking. The sky did look like it was going to unleash a storm and even the temperature dropped. But we got not one single drop of rain. FAIL.
I also realized that I really wasn't that sore from my first walk. Maybe I'm tooting my own horn here, but oveall, I'm not in bad shape fitness-wise. I have good strength still, it's just covered in fat. FAT! Anyway... So I decided to push myself a little more and walk another route through the neighborhood that would take me further out then obviously further to get back. So I set out and set a pretty good pace, using my MP3 player to help me set the pace by playing upbeat music. I also changed my stride a little, trying to take longer strides, increasing the strain on my muscles used for each step. This seemed to work faily well as I felt I had a good heartrate going and felt that it would have been slightly dificult to carry on a conversation if I had to. So I weaved through my neighborhood, fighting sidewalks that have given up against tree roots.
