Back at it. In May 2013 my company, Dolby, started its annual "Global Corporate Challenge". During the next 16 weeks, you are supposed to walk at least 10,000 steps a day. I did this, (averaged more like 13,000) and it really made a big difference (lost 45 lbs so far, much healthier.) So, I've started trying to get a little faster. I have taken to walking very fast (I can easily do 12 min/miles walking) and am trying to run now as well. Last weekend I mostly-walked-with-some-running 13.2 miles in about 2 hours 30 minutes. Today I went on my usual 5-mile morning trip, running about 1/3 the time, ended up with 10:13 miles. I hope tomorrow to get under 10 minute/miles on average!
