Keep it up! I started with a three mile walk. Now I am climbing mountains! I am 57 years old and feel like a 30 year old. I also bike to work three to four times a week totaling 24 miles a day at 12 mph.
I have to laugh at your description of a “hill”. I am at 450 feet, and have a view of Puget Sound at sea level. In Seattle we consider these “hills” as a slight rise :>)
Being from Florida and growing up in Seattle, I just had to ask about the “hills” of Florida :>)
HAHA :D
I laugh at my own description of Mount Milton too!
I can’t help myself, I’m from the south :P
But I have had the chance to be in the Smokies, so I know what real mountains are. I tell ya though, sometimes when I’m running up Mount Milton here, it feels like a real mountain.
I’m gonna use this time though, the time that the Lord has given me, to see such sights again on foot, Bear Grylls style, Dave and Cody style.
That’s how I want to spend the rest of my days, walking God’s Earth and seeing what he made as he made it. In order to do this, I’ve got to be in good shape. Heart attack and diabetes will not assist me in this goal, so I run from them each day. The more I run, the farhter away I’ll be, and eventually, they won’t be able to find me.
Yes, I know I’m probably crazy by now, but that is the way it has to be!
