Walking

I decided to take a walk this weekend whilst the wife and daughter went to the salon.  I had no plan really and didn't know how far I would go.  I downloaded a new app onto my iphone called Pedometer Ultimate which is just an upgraded version of the Pedometer I downloaded the other day.  It counts your steps and uses GPS to track your progress.  I took my son and the dog to a nearby park and started walking.  It felt like a prelude to what running would be like in the future and I must say, I really enjoyed it.  Turns out when I finished the walk, I had almost covered 3 km!

The weather is terrible here and there's a lot of snow still on the ground but I'm going to try my best to make this a regular thing. 

As for the weekend, it was terrible!  I overate again on both Friday and Saturday nights.  I gotta get these weekends under control.  So far it seems to be panning out over the course of the week but I have to start focusing on these weekend binges before they turn into habit.  After this past weekend, I think it's going to get easier as I won't be doing as much socializing.

    I am a techie at heart, and I'm really enjoying the tools that are out there now-a-days to help motivate us and track our progress!

    Keep it up!
