After yesterday's epic walk (from which Parker recovered in just a couple of hours) I realized it wouldn't be that difficult to get another 10,000 steps. So I did:
That's a new PR. It was also 27.08 km—another PR.
So the top 5 (as I mentioned back in March) are now:
| 2016 Jun 8 | 32,315 |
| 2015 Apr 26 | 30,496 |
| 2016 Mar 8 | 29,775 |
| 2015 Jun 15 | 28,455 |
| 2015 May 2 | 26,054 |
I'm not moving as quickly today as I did yesterday, but I'm pretty happy about blowing past my previous PR.
Now I have plans for some day in the next week or so literally to walk as far as I can along the U.P. North line and then take the train home. Highland Park is about 28 km from my house, and it has a childhood favorite place to eat: Walker Bros. Pancake House (which, if you think about it, is a great place to end a 28-kilometer walk). And if I don't make it all the way there, I can simply take a train home.
Parker will not accompany me on that walk.
