"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!

14-176


Today's walk ended with a view of the official pace car used by the Boredom Committee to hand down warnings and sanctions against this blog when it provides insufficient boredom to the masses.  This followed a 3.20 mile walk with 65 feet climbed in 1:01:59 hours.  Tortoise rating:  5.7; calories burned:  501.  Clicking on the link below will reward you with a map, another picture, and more stats for anyone feeling stat deprived at this point ...

Cheerio!

Coach Wooden approved manner.  Blisters are not approved,
so the tortoise can only hope so!
2014 Stats:

495.00 miles walked, which is 49.45% of my 2014 goal.

Becca agrees the 495 number reminds her of her happy days driving the Long Island Expressway :-)
154:12:03 hours walked, which is 49.27% of my 2014 goal
22,672 total feet climbed 
79,136 calories burned
 48.24% of the year has passed
I've walked on 140 of the 151 non-Sundays thus far in 2014, a 92.72% consistency rating.

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!
