50 Flights

Brain cancer is...

 ...a master of distraction.

Today was a big walk day for us; our goal was 10 miles.  We walk at a leisurely pace, so we look for things to do to keep busy.  How to keep busy during a 10-mile walk? Pay attention to other goals. 

We use my phone and various apps to track progress on our walks, including flights of stairs.  On a good day, we get about 12 flights of stairs.  Today on our walk, Darrell decided to take every path that led up.  His goal was for us to set a flight record for ourselves that we could never break.  Here it is:

Fifty flights.  That's it for us.  Feel free to best it for yourselves, but we're sticking to the flat lands on future walks.

You might also notice that we had to go beyond our 10 miles to achieve Darrell's goal.  Darrell definitely distracted me from the mileage today, which was particularly appreciated because it was 87 degrees and windy.  I can't remember the last time I felt this grimy and crispy.   

We'll be turning in early tonight.  Hope you enjoyed your Sunday!
