Mile 908. Kevin and Alli's wedding was memorable, not only for the spirit in the sealing room and for the cold while the pictures were taken, but for this couple's endless smiles and their desire to serve their guests lunch! Tortoise added a 2.07 mile walk to this brilliant day, immediately before the wedding lunch in Woods Cross. There were 2 feet climbed in 1.04 miles along the way, giving that portion a 5.8 tortoise rating. The rest of the path was flat or downhill. Lou burned 304 calories doing this in 35:45 minutes.

I've walked 48 consecutive non-Sundays since my last missed day on September 20, and overall have walked on 261 of the 274 non-Sundays thus far in 2014, a 95.26% 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.
"Whatever our station in life, whatever our achievements, no matter how great, a submissive heart and a humble spirit are still fundamental to our faith. We must guard against letting our worldly successes or earthly learning become a substitution for spiritual wisdom and divine direction given through the prophets."
