Walking in the dark

Tonight I went walking with Nic again. It was quite late by the time Nic arrived at our place but we went out anyway. We went to the oval at the end of our street, which I found out has running tracks cut into it. This makes it easier to get a definite measurement of the oval.

This oval had no lights at all but you could see the tracks quite well, so Nic and I stayed. Nic ran his 4.5km, whilst I did walking. This oval seemed much bigger than the oval near Nic & Robyn's house but apparently it was smaller. I walked 12 laps which only worked out to 4.5km.

Probably a good thing I didn't walk further as my feet are quite sore. This is not due to the fact that I didn't wear my ankle brace but more because I have blisters on blisters. I think I may need to go back to wearing 2 pairs of socks or invest in blister bandaids. Maybe I should just do both? I think another factor was doing walks two days in a row. I am sure it was sand from the beach that caused the blisters.

I am going to have a couple of days break of walking to get these blisters to heal a bit and get back into it on Thursday hopefully.

Distance travelled today: 4.5km
Distance travelled so far: 67.95km
Distance left to travel: 25,686.05km
