4 more miles

These miles are for mowing our lawn. It was an hour to mow on a steep incline. If I would have done something similar on the elliptical it would have been more miles but I just figure 1 mile per 15 minutes.

2 miles today+1 for strength 2 other days

I guess I pushed myself a little too hard having bronchitis the other day. I kept cardio low and did some strength training and stretching 2 days this week...I will count that as one more mile. Hopefully I will get at least 2 more miles in today. Heading to the home of Big Foot! Can't wait to walk there.

Finally back after being sick!




Today is my first workout since I started getting sick 2 weeks ago. My pace was a little slower since I still have a respiratory infection. I did 3 miles on the elliptical in 37 minutes. My lungs were hurting!...I felt great though. I am always amazed at how much I miss my workouts when I don't do them.

This means I am half-a-mile from my next destination. So, take a look at the giant shoe made of shoes:)

"Clayton, Missouri - Big Shoe Made of Shoes
The Big Shoe Made of Shoes is located in front of the Brown Shoe Company Executive offices - not their factory. I worked there for many years. Brown Shoe Company was the first Fortune 500 company to locate and build in Clayton. Although it is no longer a Fortune 500 company it is still the largest shoe distributor in the world - and home to Buster Brown, and others brands."...pulled from Roadside America website

The next destination is 11.5 miles away (plus the .5 I still need to walk). What will we see after 12 more miles? Onward and downward! ....Amusing!
