Whew! I wish I had an ear-warmer for that lunch run I just made. Man, it's cold out there in the wind. Why am I walking to get lunch from the cave on Gallows? Because I'm trying to get at least a *little* exercise every day. I can't do my weeknight walk tonight because I'm getting a haircut and it will be dark by the time I get home.
See, I'm trying to drop 20 more pounds and get hiker-fit by mid-April so I can take a week or so off and do a long distance hike. I've been in maintenance and laziness mode through the darkest part of winter, but I need to break that habit because I get winded on sissy-baby-girly hills at this point.
I'm even thinking about running instead of walking. We'll see how I do with that. I may wind up simply extending my walk and not switching to running...but running would really improve my lung capacity for climbing...we shall see.
