16 MILES, THE HARD WAY

This must be the hard way. Walk 6 miles in Midway Airport before taking off for a trip to Houston, Texas.  Arrive Houston, Texas and walk 10 miles.

.


I accomplished a 6 mile INDOOR AIRPORT HIKE by walking the entire Midway Terminal a little more than three times. Each 'lap' was approximately 1.7 miles. I timed my walk perfectly so that the moment I was finished, I needed to line up to board the aircraft. In the 'old days' I would have arrived early at the airport and purchased a nice high calorie bagel with cream cheese with a chocolate milk.  These days, instead of consuming 1000 calories, minutes after my arrival at the airport, I have found a way to burn nearly 1000 calories.

Part of my URBAN HIKE yesterday in Houston, Texas had me hiking through Buffalo Bayou Park

As part of my 'food diary' yesterday, I included 8 oz of Dewars Scotch. I don't drink too often, but when I do, I can overdo it. It is all part of the same personality trait that made me an overeater.  I suppose it is part of the same personality trait that makes me an over-walker.  You know what, I may have overdone it a bit on the drinking last evening, but I woke up early on Friday, as I had planned, with enough time to take a hike through part of the beautiful park that I 'discovered' yesterday before meeting my colleagues for a 10:00AM breakfast.
