"The Blog Almost Too Boring To Be The Most Boring Blog in America ... for Over 5 Years!"

until it got too many red cards from Wounded Duck and the Boredom Enforcement Committee ... now the tortoise's goal is to get to 10 red cards so he can get Big Dog to drive down and take a good long walk with the tortoise

P. S. This blog listens to its readers. We have the Benjamin Category Override for 5+ mile walks and now, it humbles Tortoise to say he has been named "Lou", by Doug Jr, in memory of Mr. Consistency himself, Lou Gehrig. Tortoise can hardly type the words to think he is in any way comparable to the noble Iron Horse. Thank you!

Walking at sunrise near Stephanie and Paseo Verde in Henderson, NV
When I'm in an unfamiliar but inviting neighborhood, in a hurry, and ready for a walk, I go with my old standby.  Find a main road with a good sidewalk, hopefully with a hill to climb.  (Please click on the line below to see another picture and read more about where I found to walk today, August 30) ...

Go as far as I can in 15 minutes, then retrace my steps.  Today that took me 1.72 miles, climbing 98 feet, in 28 minutes, a HumanaFit category 5 climb with a 2.7% grade in Henderson, Clark County, Nevada. Tortoise rating:  5.3. This bring my chapter 3 totals to 135.65 miles walked in 52 hours 31 minutes, with 8,903 feet climbed, and 14 swims totalling 4,640 meters in 4 hour 57 minutes.  The walk included my 26th HumanaFit category 5 climb, and my first since August 22Totals of my category 5 climbs is now 36.27 miles with 3,087 feet climbed in 13 hours 26 minutes.

Today's last word ... from listening to "The Doctrine of Christ" by Elder D. Todd Christopherson in the April 2012 LDS General Conference while walking:

"As our Easter celebration approaches, I express my own witness that Jesus of Nazareth was and is the Son of God, the very Messiah of ancient prophecy. He is the Christ, who suffered in Gethsemane, died on the cross, was buried, and who indeed rose again the third day. He is the resurrected Lord, through whom we shall all be resurrected and by whom all who will may be redeemed and exalted in His heavenly kingdom. This is our doctrine, confirming all prior testaments of Jesus Christ and stated anew for our own time. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen."

Cheerio!
