1000 Mile Club

OK, now I feel like a real wimp. Here's an 82 year old man who walked his 1000 miles in 146 days. And I'm already behind for this year.

New Year's Resolutions

Do you know that if you walk 2.73 miles a day every day of the year you will have walked 1000 miles? Not too bad, huh? At a brisk pace it would take about 45 minutes a day. But, if you get lazy and skip days, you end up walking 5 or 6 miles a day for the last two weeks of the year.

Back at the beginning of 2007 I signed up for the Richmond Parks Department 1000 Mile Club. (Actually I signed up for 2006 and quit in May.) December 31st I walked two miles to total 1000.5 miles walked in 2007 and to complete my first ever New Year's Resolution.

I think I'm going to try it again. Along with quitting Pepsis and taking the GRE. Success must go to my head. Finish one resolution and I think I can handle 3 this year. Pepsi will definitely be the hardest.
