And his attempts to find variety in his walks, avoid Terreeeblay the treadmill, keep his doctor happy and himself alive and vibrant!
"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!

14-14
Up, up, and away! Walked to work with a couple extra street turns to add a little length to make the goal. Stopped to do some work at Valley Academy on my way to the office, so there are two maps for basically one walk. Total of both: 3.37 miles with 200 feet climbed in 1:00:40 hours. Tortoise rating: 5.5; calories burned: 527. Please click below for maps and more ...
Cheerio!
2014 Stats:
44.73 miles walked, which is 4.47% of my 2014 goal.
14:22:56 hours walked, which is 4.59% of my 2014 goal
2,312 total feet climbed
7,023 calories burned
3.83% of the year has passed.
The purpose of the percentages is to have a higher percentage of distance and time walked than of the year. This tells me I am on track. I'm sure this is more numbers than you are interested in, all I can say is I'm really good at setting high goals and having them slip away because I don't do them every, every day.
The tortoise is smiling!
