Well tonight's walk was brought to you by the letter "stupid"..
I left my keys in the door and forgot to take them when I left for tonights walk. I was lucky that someone was home to grab them..
*whew*
From now on before I leave I will do a "pocket check" and make sure they are in a zipped up pocket safely placed in my new swanky vest..
So I have been doing some reading on "walking technique" and it appears I am not using my upper body to the maximum effect.. See... You are supposed to swing your arms a certain way and I will not do it..since it looks kinda goofy...and why add fuel to my fire?
Yaknowaddahmean?
That being said, I decided I would use this paticular technique only while walking up hills..it turns out it actually increases the tempo of my pace! So on tonight's walk I have two pretty decent hills to do this on. Hill number two is in a sort bad part of the city and as I walked up the 2nd hill I think I frightened a crack addict who was standing near a payphone waiting for his "delivery"...it worked though..
No real complaints on tonites walk except I was slowed down by making cel phone calls home to find out about my keys and I got stuck at two really bad traffic lights..

Tony! It looks like your high IQ doesn't exactly kick in all the time. Sounds like you'd lose your noggen if it wasn't attached to your shoulders.
Now, get back to walking and don't get all geeky about technique. Just walk dammit!
(I hope this is motivating for you. It always worked when you badgered me) SFS baby!
SFS!!!!
