Virtual Walk
As an important part of my getting healthy program I began to walk on the fourth of February, 2002. What started as a walk in the park has become much more since then. To make it more fun I decided to turn it in to a virtual walk across the country. And now that I've done that twice I'm going to start a journey around the USA.
But first a recap of the totals I've accumulated since I started.

Year to Date Mileage Summary as of 12/31/2003
Note the improvement in my pace from month to month. Moving faster has sure saved me a lot of hours. Well December slowed down a bit, bad hamstring pull on the 3rd of December took all month to heal.

I now use the Garmin Forerunner 305 and I love it. To see the results of that unit and my exercise program since getting it in November of 2006 check out this link.
Because the original page got so big I've now broken it up into separate pages. Click on the links at the left to check out each leg of my journey.
