MT461GO New Balance "Walking"
The boots are great, perfect for "terrain" but most of my walking is on paved road. Makes not much sense to run a boot on a paved road. Yesterday on the Ft. Stevens bike paths I was thinking that a walking shoe would be much preferred.
$49.99 at Fred's -- on sale!
"Up The Hill" -- We managed to track it, figure altitude (365 ft), but didn't get the "trip data" reset. It's 3.1 mi. according to Google Earth. I worked in a few short jogs on the flat stretches. (We need to wear appropriate pants, not jeans.) The shoes are a good idea.
Ohhhhhh yeah . . . We're able to push hard up the hills, full blown aerobic -- step-breath-step-breath -- crank up the hill, and good, fast recovery. Able to accelerate at the summit. This a day after a long walk. The long walk yesterday did not leave me stiff like the hike up Tillamook Head on Monday!
Ordered "Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain" John D. Ratey, MD -- Book Depot, free shipping!
Thinking about Saturday hike, Tillamook Head from Seaside end out to ridge which I reached from other end on Monday. Booooooyah! I have not felt this good in a very long time!
