A beginning

Just a personal blog to detail my progress hiking.

I started on Saturday, August 4, 2012. Headed out with my Merrell light hiking boots and did about 2.4 miles out and back along the Capital Greenbelt next to the Susquehanna River. Felt fairly good.

On Sunday, I did 3 miles out and back along the same route. Plenty tight hamstrings but other than than...acceptable

On Monday, I did 3 miles again. Same route. Legs felt like I had run the previous two times. Achy and tight.

On Tuesday I rested. Mainly because I had done 8.4K steps on the Fitbit. I had been to the Pentagon which always entails a lot of walking and a good bit of unmeasured steps because of having to locker my fitbit.

Today, I set out from the apartment intending to do a 30 minute out and back. But, I was delighted to discover a 1.9 mile loop that begins and ends right at the apartment. Right now, this is perfect for my pace. Like 38 minutes or so. I don't have the data near at hand at them moment.
