Today Me and Captain Angela teamed up with sportsclub "de Bergpallieters" for their tough walk in Godinne. And a tough walk it was indeed...
At the end of the day the pedometer showed 23.5KM, which equaled 30402 steps and all this in a time of 4 hours and 57 minutes.
I completed the walk rather unscathed. Sore legs, totally empty and a bit of tension on the achilles tendon.... other than that no problems so far.
For me as an untrained walker I felt that I had really pushed myself today, maybe even overdone it a bit. But in the end I am proud to have completed the entire hike.
My intention was a "virtual kick in the butt" a "wake up call"...
The West Highland Way consists of 8 days of similar walks and if I look at how I feel now, I have finally convinced myself to take training for Scotland 2011 a bit more seriously.
Tomorrow "virtual buttkick" number two.... "how does it feel to be walking two days in a row?". A shorter walk tomorrow with friends from Mechelen to Haacht...
Fingers crossed..
