Welcome to late night on the 600 North shared bike/walk path with the Tortoise ... after e-filing entity tax returns right up to the midnight deadline, Tortoise headed out on a minimum 2.04 mile walk in which he walked a mile and just a little more, then retraced his steps, climbing 139 feet in 31:39 minutes in the process. Tortoise rating was 4.8 and calories burned were 352.

I've walked 30 consecutive non-Sundays since my last missed day on August 11, and overall have walked on 209 of the 221 non-Sundays thus far in 2014, a 94.57% 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.
There were several insights of note in Neal Maxwell's October 1990 conference talk, here's a couple to get you started:
"Thus, in all its various expressions, selfishness is really self-destruction in slow motion!
"The meek men and women of Christ are quick to praise, but are also able to restrain themselves. They understand that on occasion the biting of the tongue can be as important as the gift of tongues."

The tortoise is smiling!
