Weekly walking summary -- 1.700 miles this week

Tuesday. Judy and I drove to the American Fork Hospital where I had surgery for two skin cancers. We did no walking when we got home. However, we walked about 0.1 mile getting to the correct  building in American Fork.

 Wednesday. Judy and I walked to the corner and back, a distance of 0.4 Miles. 

Thursday.  Judy and I repeated our walk of yesterday for another distance of 0.4 mile. The weather forecast  called for rain showers during the day and snow flurries through the night. We were out early in the day so we would miss the rain The temperature  during our walk was in the mid 30s (F) with a old south wind of about 5 mph. It wasn't a strong wind, but it was cold. We didn't get the rain showers during the day.

Weekly walking summary -- 1.925 miles this week

 Monday. Judy and I walked part way around the east loop and went only 0.1 mile. I didn't feel very well, so we aborted our walk.

Tuesday. Judy and I walked all the way around the east loop. I was really tired when we got back home. I'm not sure why I was so tired. I've slept good at night, although I've been getting about 6 hours of sleep. I guess that isn't enough. I felt fine during the first half and then I got tired during the last half. I think I need to reduce my distance . 

Wednesday.  Judy and I walked to the corner and back for a round trip of 0.400 miles. The full distance around the east loop is 0.625 miles.

Thursday. Judy and I walked to the corner and back for another 0.400 miles. This is the same walk we took yesterday. I had 9-10 hours of sleep last night.

Friday. Judy and I Walked to the corner and back.

Saturday. We didn't go out because it rained and snowed all day.

Weekly walking summary -- 2.250 miles this week

 On Monday I felt pretty good so Judy and I walked 0.4 miles round trip to test how much I had recovered from my heavy week of walking two weeks ago. During our walk, we had temperatures in the 60s (F), and it was a beautiful Spring day. However, there was a gusty south wind that made walking difficult. The wind gusts were about 25 - 30 mph.

On Tuesday I felt pretty good so Judy and I walked about 0.6 miles round trip going part way around the east loop. The temperature was in the high 30s (F), but the gusty south wind was gone.  We may get rain or snow flurries later in the day.

On  Wednesday, I felt like I  normally feel, and Judy and I did the east loop. I was tired at the end of the loop but I wasn't fatigued, and I still wanted to do more. The temperature was 61 (F) during our walk. We were forecast to have rain and snow flurries,  but I couldn't detect them if they did occur. 

Thursday was another day of walking. Judy and I walked around the east loop for a 0.625 mile distance. I was tired when I finished the  walk around the east loop, but I wasn't fatigued. There was a south breeze of about 0.5 mph. The temperature during our walk was in the 40s (F). I don't know if the mountains got snow, but we didn't get rain or snow in western Salt Lake County. The top of the Wasatch mountains looked like they were in snow, however. Tomorrow is a no-walk day. So a predicted walk on Saturday will finish the week.

Friday and Saturday were no-walk days.

So far this week, we have accumulated  2.250 miles.

Weekly walking summary -- 1.875 miles this week

During this week I had three days of reduced distance walks and two days of non-walking, due to my resting from my heavy long-walk last week. (I normally walk on five days). Each day this week that I walked, I walked one time around the east loop.

I accumulated 1.875 miles for the week.

Another rest walk

Judy and I did another rest walk with one pass around the east loop. I was still fatigued when I got back home, even though I had a good breakfast. I think I need to do less than one pass around the east loop. It is true that I will be walking less than my normal distance, but the savings in distance comes during the last half of the week; I need savings in distance during the first half of the week, too.

I think I will make tomorrow and Saturday no-walk days. Also, I'll make Monday of next week a no-walk day. Tuesday of next week will be a walking-reduced-distance day.

So far I have walked 1.875 miles this week.

I did another rest walk

 In the afternoon I did another rest walk around the east loop. So far the distance accumulation for this week is 1.250 miles. I was tired when I arrived back home. I ate food and drink for breakfast and lunch, so I think my tiredness is due to the heavy workouts I had last week. If I keep on walking around the east loop I will have about 3.1 miles for the week. This is a good reduction from the high mileage last week, and this distance should give me a good rest and keep me in shape for future weeks.

The temperature was in the low 50s (F) during my walk, and there was no noticeable breeze blowing. It was a nice Spring day!

Judy and I did a rest walk

Judy and I did a rest walk of once around the east loop, for a distance of 0.625 miles. I was very tired at the end of our walk.  I think I was tired because I hadn't eaten any food or water since last night, and my body needed food and water to provide energy for my walk. We left home for our walk about 10 am.

I had a 2:00 appointment with a doctor, and I didn't eat or drink before or after the appointment. I didn't eat or drink because I wasn't hungry or thirsty.

The sun was out all day, and the temperature during our walk was in the low 40s (F).

I finally ate supper and drank a glass of water during our supper. I'm still weak from lack of food and water even though I had supper. I hope I've learned a lesson about eating and drinking.

There is another reason for my being tired today. Last week I had a big increase in my weekly distance, and today needs to be a rest week of 3.9 miles or less.
