*giggles* What can I say, I like walking.
And the dland resort is a great, safe place for me to do my walking and I also can encorporate plenty of stairs into my routine too.
I love my friday walks!!!!
I probably couldn't run to save my life with my forms of asthma, but I can quickly walk up a storm. heehehhe
Thanks y'all I didn't expect anyone to say anything. I was just soo jazzed I had to tell someone, eheheheheh *smiles*

Yes, well when you have to be 6 inches tall to use those wings, distances seem to increase dramatically. VS. being able to have averaged 3 ft stride length per step.

Average based on regular step 2' 8", speed stride 3' 4". Average between to account for change in pace due to walkway traffic patterns of 3', and being able to do about a 4 mph pace for hours. You could see how that is much more productive.

Dirtdazzy Topic Author Offline Resident Tavern Pixie Posts: 7584	Basically I averaged a 3 mph pace for about 10 hours. My pace significantly slowed once my folks joined me, otherwise my average might have been higher. But I had a great time with them I wouldn't have traded that time.

Dirtdazzy Topic Author Offline Resident Tavern Pixie Posts: 7584	Well that would get my calves toned faster I'm sure. However, they find more creative ways to torture me. Didn't get to do my walk on friday this week, but I did it on wednesday, did 20 miles. Not bad. 'Whenever I feel blue, I remind myself to breathe again.'
