He, he he...She walks a triangle, if she is like me she called it her triangle. Dev, its not supposed to make sense,Luv its supposed to ward off boredom,keep your mind on a different look all the time and keep your mind off of how far you have gone.It is psychological and you never run out of new routes.
Also if you have a difficult animal that likes to go his/her own way you can thoroughly confuse him/her until they act like you want without having to get rough.
I used to walk in Waveland(this was 1990+/-) The railroad and the beach and Sears Ave. Form a triangle 10 miles +/- around the perimeter. I set a goal of 20 miles a week. In 6 mts. I was doing almost double that. I never could have done it w/o my triangle. The advantage was that I could walk almost anytime by takin advantage of the trees in the heat and the many angles of the streets in the windy cold.
Another thing about them is you can walk long distances and not ever be too far from home, if the weather is changing or maybe I wasn't feeling too good and wanted access to the house in a hurry. IOW,I never had an excuse not to walk.
I have mapped out Laci's triangle several times and I will again later today. She had a good tringle with access to two parks along, is it Rocky creek. One by her house, and Mrs Mitchell says she walked a park by her house weather permitting. She said Laci would walk in both directions-on different days. Sometimes she passed her house before she went to the park and other times vice versa.
If memory serves, the last day she was coming from the park.Let me check first and see. I remember, I thought the area she was walking through after she passed the mitchells looked, on the map anyway, to be a spot ideal to be Grabbed, In fact I think that was about when she had to go. the dog took the creek bed home I think; Thus all the mud on the leach and that would put him paassing the teacher who was in the park by her house.
I need a nap; I went walking this morning.
