Mile 559. There were a few sprinkles this morning, it just might rain today! Tortoise was thinking about how nice that would be while dodging a few random raindrops and listening to the day's thought by Donald Hallstrom ...
Cheerio!
Today's walk was 3.67 miles, done in 1:02:33 hours at an average pace of 17:03 minutes per mile. This route had an average tortoise rating of 4.7, earned by climbing 260 feet in the 1.83 mile uphill portion. Average elevation was 3236.
Here are the overall stats so far for 2016:
559.53 miles walked, compared with Lou's goal for this date of 544.59.
38,014 total feet climbed so far in 2016, compared to a year-to-date goal of 33,516. Lou hopes to climb more than the 61,316 feet he climbed in 2015 -- but in less time each day than his 1:07:04 hour per day average in 2015. So far in 2016, Tortoise's walks have averaged 58:03 minutes each.
His average pace so far in 2016 has been 17:44.3 minutes per mile, compared with his 18:25 minute per mile pace in 2015.
Lou has walked 372 consecutive non-Sundays since his 8 missed days May 2-11, 2015. Overall he has walked on 475 of the 484 non-Sundays in 2015-16, a 98.141% consistency rating.
And now for today's walking thought ...
"The great Jehovah was also named Jesus and additionally was given the title of Christ, meaning the Messiah or Anointed One. His crowning achievement was the Atonement, wherein Jesus the Christ 'descended below all things' (D&C 88:6), making it possible for Him to pay a redeeming ransom for each of us."
The tortoise is smiling!
