On The Verge Of 300 Miles

If you check my "mileage" at Lime.com, you will see this:

I have walked 549 miles so far, over 10,996 minutes, taken 1,099,600 steps, burned 54,980 calories and reduced CO2 emissions from car use by 458 pounds.

Lime.com's Walkout breaks it down into not just miles, but steps taken, calories, minutes, etc...

When the clock struck midnight on December 31, 2007, I had walked 251.75 miles since my start last summer. That was just the "shakedown cruise" while I was getting used to the pedometer and before I made my New Year's resolution to lose 50 pounds (of fat) and gain 10 pounds of muscle by December 31, 2008. Some time today I will pass through 551.75 miles total, which means 300 miles since January 1, 2008.

I am still going. Are you still attacking your resolutions? How are your goals? If you are not happy with your progress, start again right now, February 25th, or whatever day you find this. If you never made a resolution, you can make one right now.

Return to Big Man Walking for encouragement. You can see that I'm still at it. Be encouraged. Get motivated. Get inspired. I'm going for a good walk as soon as I finish typing. When you walk and keep track of your progress, you will be inspired to reach your other goals.

I am walking. You can walk. Please walk today. No matter what.
