Level 52 countdown

This is a countdown to level 52. I fail when I fail to plan.

Wonder-filled day. Awesome friends old and new, glorious weather.

22 — Tree work

This rather large tree (much too heavy for us to lift) had fallen onto the roof of this building. It took two us, and some Quadrupedal on a slippery roof to get it trimmed, properly felled, and then off the roof without any damage. Tomorrow will be more walking in London.

Final day before heading home. Found these two neat buildings; note the color of the glass windows on the left one. Tomorrow: A day of traveling.

This is what my brain felt like after a long day of traveling. Solid workout in itself. So happy, and so lucky to have gotten this trip in! Tomorrow: Running back at home.

Back home to my usual flat lollipop loop. Little lighter, little faster than last time. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Tomorrow: Bouldering at our local spot.

Walked to my fave cafe for lunch. I’m not sure I’ve every accurately tracked this walk before. I was thinking it was just short of 2 miles; apparently I’ve been underestimating. Regardless, happy to walk 4.5 miles to see familiar faces and have a yummy sandwich.

Level 52 Countdown

14 — Body-weight circuit

15 circuits of good ‘ol pushups, squats, and hanging leg-raises.

3 miles out and back. Got a little cardio in on the steeper bits. Tomorrow: Running (probably?)

Level 52 Countdown

Our nearby short, flat lollipop loop. Tomorrow: Discussion of running some dashes on the track.

I was reminded we have access to our school district’s track. 8 laps with 100m dashes. Unfortunately after 3 dashes one achilles’ tendon said ‘stop that’. But still, if that best, 6’32”-mile pace is right… I’m stunned!

Solid couple of hours at my favorite local gym, Le Yard. I don’t “love” yard work, but I very much prefer this free gym membership to any other sort of “go and exercise.” Tomorrow: walking (still recovering achilles from sprints)

Still nursing my achilles from sprints. Really didn’t feel like I was running that hard… must have not warmed up sufficiently.

Frankly, if I just walked every day it’d probably be a win. :) Tomorrow: should probably include some actual running though.

Amazing weather today. Still walking. The part I most dislike about doing these many-day activity challenges is taking a photo. Here’s a photo of the sheets I use to track activity and goals.
