Down to 297, and I walked a half marathon today.

Posted by: Anthony In: Exercise|Gadgets|Gym|Walk

Well, here is the map:

<a href="http://www.mapmyfitness.com/walk/united-states/fl/miami/148124114753131957">04/30/2009 Route</a><br/><a href="http://www.mapmyfitness.com/find-walk/united-states/fl/miami">Find more Walks in Miami, Florida</a>

Here’s the Nike+ Data:

The walk wasn’t too difficult. I stopped for a minute at the bank and then had a Subway Footlong half way through. I was listening to one of those Star Wars Audio books so time passed by really quickly. I’m not too sore, either.

I’m also able to get rid of some of my old fat clothes. I’m keeping a pair of pants to do the standard before clothes/after clothes thing that every one else has done. I’ve gotta do it!

I am going to be checking out Pro Fitness Centers gym in Coral Gables. It has great, no contract, no initiation fees for only $38.99 per month. I want to start lifting weights at least 3 times a week. Seeing as though I am not sure what my living arrangements are going to be, this will work out for the time being. There is another closer to where I live, and I will check that one out as well.

I wore through my pant during this walk. Not a bad thing. I was getting ready to get rid of them for a smaller pair, anyhow.

Hey Anthony,

Just wanted to say I love the site, and wish you the best of luck. Seems like you’re already kicking ass and dropping a bunch of weight.

I’ll be following your progress. Now that you have a blog, you aren’t only doing this for yourself, but for everybody reading along with you.

Stick with it.

Thanks Rod

I know the lifting is going to help, but I am admittedly apprehensive about it, due to the back surgery. I’ve got to take it easy at first but I am not doing free weights. Only machine weights for now!

Thanks for the comments!

Thanks Steve!

I hope this inspires people as well… I’m trying to encourage some of my family and friends to read along and to join with me, but you can only lead a horse to water.
