My last hike 21 days ago

Post by writelots »

:o .

I remember a day, not too long ago, when this would not have even phased me. Now it depresses me and causes me to immediately pull up my calendar. What have I done? :PMIC:

I think it took you 21 days to write that triplog, I'm still on chapter I mean day 3.

Such a shame. I also wonder why I have all the free time in the world when it's 110 degrees out yet struggle to get out in the good weather :sweat:

I love the little reminder. Sometimes it is just the motivation I need to get out there and do something!

I've get mixed emotions when the reminder starts creeping up... Sometimes I blow it off 'cuz I don't log many of my short, local hikes. This time, when I saw it creep to day 20, I practically ran out of the house and up into the hills!



@writelots
I have got to check out your triplog... Hope you captured my true essence!? :D

I hope it's not an injury that's kept you on the bench.

@joe bartels
Yeah - it's a good thing we don't have to write this stuff out long-hand any more, or I'd have terminal writer's cramp from that one!

@Sun Ray
No injury, at least not mine. There's Mr. Wendy and his injured pride that his lil' wifey type is always out gallivanting about the wilderness without him... Sigh. I think I've worked it out for this weekend, though. I need to get away from the election buzz before I kill something. ](*,)

Yay for hiking this weekend! Totally looking forward to the time outside. I need to get away from the internet :PMIC:

As long as it's only my most recent hike (not my last), I can live with it. Of course, I some of my hikes don't go up here. :D

So in reading this, I'm making the assumption that HAZ sends you something that says you haven't hiked in 21 days? Hmmm
I haven't seen that yet this year :D . Joe, can you/or is that timeframe, one we can adjust?

...I got it... it kept upping the day count... when it finally hit around 30 it got me back out on the trails... nice feature.

Yup - it worked on me this weekend. I could have spent the day sitting in a hammock, relaxing and being lazy. Instead, I felt like I had to do enough walking to earn a reset on that particular counter!
