What's this?

Walking fast takes work


I've been walking at what I thought was a relatively quick pace doing ~17:30 miles. Yesterday I decided to try to walk faster to see what kind of time I can get, and I ended up with a 16:01 mile. Today, I decided to put everything into it, and walked a 13:33 mile. That is my new benchmark time to beat!

It's easy to break into a jog or run to beat that time, but I won't see any significant improvement like that again. From now on, I'll shave seconds, not minutes off my best time.

The pic depicts how it feels to walk fast...lol
