Exercise - Days 18, 19 and 20

It's official i am according to my fitness app a Weekend Warrior, 30,980 steps Saturday and Sunday, my weekly total Monday to Sunday last week was a foot blistering 97,074, in the space of one month i have added 50,000+ steps to my weekly routine, for a man who is still carrying around 160kg+ i think this is a great effort and i am proud of myself for keeping the walking going.

On the app i use it allows me to compare my data next to a demographic of choice of others using the app which for me is Male, 35 to 44 years, Obese, last weeks 97,000 steps was 189% more than the median average of guys my age and size, even compared to Male, Any age, Any size i am clocking up an extra 61,000 steps rated at 180% more... I walked 77km in total, for 77,000 metres i lugged this massive pile of fat, muscle and bones around, my feet are killing me...

Get a fitness app, it can give you a great boost if you think you are not doing enough and it also stops you for doing too much and if you are lazy like me this data is greatly appreciated.

On Saturday i dropped my car off at the car wash this time and walked home accompanied by Ryan on his bicycle, the walk is about 4km so Ryan did really well, sort of, well he did but as expected i carried his bicycle the last 1.5km because his legs were hurting, however a small weights workout never did anyone any harm.

We are very lucky, for 3 years the main arterial road feeding traffic in and out of our area was a nightmare due to road works specifically the building of dedicated bus lanes for the new Rapid Transport System, the diggers, tractors and fag smoking propped up on shovels staring at cell phone screens construction crews have gone but they have left a fantastic landscaped walk hosting urban art right up the middle of the bus lanes which hits a distance of 5km, safe and not taxing at all (remember if i can do it at 160kg then anyone can)...

Here are some photos of our ride/sherpa-esque walk/hike back home from the car wash...




 Ryan rode this hill under the bridge 4 times... 
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
