Here's a view walking home from work this afternoon.  This followed a shorter walk this morning home from Roadrunner after dropping my car off to get a leak repaired.  Total of both walks was 4.02 miles with 217 feet climbed in 1:17:42 hours.  Tortoise rating for the walk home was 4.9.  Total calories burned on both walks was 593.  Please click below for maps, another picture, and today's walking thought by Boyd Packer that included "do you think a vote to repeal the law of gravity would do any good?"

Cheerio!

I've walked 31 consecutive non-Sundays since my last missed day on September 20, and overall have walked on 244 of the 257 non-Sundays thus far in 2014, a 94.94% consistency rating.

The purpose of the percentages is to have a higher percentage of distance and time walked than of the year. This tells Tortoise that he is on track. Yes, this is more numbers than you are likely interested in, all Tortoise can say is he's really good at setting high goals and having them slip away because he doesn't do them every, every day.

And now for more of today's walking thought, from an April 1992 address,

"There are both moral and physical laws “irrevocably decreed in heaven before the foundations of this world” (D&C 130:20) which man cannot overrule. For instance, do you think a vote to repeal the law of gravity would do any good?"
