Getting in Shape... Day 28 and 29

It happened... I was there!  I saw it with my own eyes!  

These legs are tired but looking forward to trekking NORTH!
The 20 miles that I had determined weeks ago to walk after actually walking 18 miles... at one time, on one day, was realized!


Now I know that I can walk 20 miles!  I can because I really did it!  


Granted, my brother Britt and I did stop at a Subway on Ford Road on the way back and eat lunch... we actually walked 20 plus miles!  20 MILES! Our legs carried us that far!  WOOO!  


That all happened yesterday!  


So Afterwards... we picked up Becky from the Airport after she flew in from Finland.   We all crashed relatively early (10:30 pm or so-after having some ice cream!).  So this morning, I thought that I would just stretch my legs a bit and I set out for the office.  Surprisingly enough, I was not too sore!   The short 4.6 miles that I walked this AM pushed up my personal total mileage for the 'practice walk' to 293 miles!  As I have written before, I had determined for myself to actually 'do300 miles before we set out for Mackinaw City, MI beginning on September 5th which is Labor Day 2011!  I think that I am going to reach my goal and some!  


I am excited to see how many folks are going to come and walk that first day with us!  


With my feet on the Ground!

p.s. Becky is home!  Halleluia!
