Clyde WalkwayWith the sun making a rare appearance twice in the space of two days, I’ve been spending as much time as possible walking around some of the less well known parts of the town with camera in hand. Unfortunately this has meant putting the heavy stuff on hold for a couple of days - although the amount of walking done certainly adds up to a decent cardio session.

Roughly the length of two marathon courses in two days. Quite enough to ensure a good night’s sleep afterward. Lest you think that’s a long way to walk, however, take a look at one obese man’s trek across the US.

I’ve never walked more than about 10 or 15 miles in one go. I have, however, run 30 miles non-stop. Does that count?

Speaking of treking across the country, some former teammates of mine did a relay run across the US a year and a half ago. The book about it should be published hopefully next week; I am talking to the guy that wrote it and am going to buy a few copies to use as prizes for contests at Run to Win.
