Hi All , With a special hello for my family. So just to give a little perspective to tonights walk. This is how my day went ; Up at 03:49 because my mind and body were arguing about the need to get up when the alarm went off at 03:44 . Anyhow, Shower, dressed for work, walk to the dining hall, breakfast, walk to the bus station, off to site at 04:50 arrive 05:20 , walk to the Crib room sort a few personal things out ( lunch , dunny , send a message to my girlfriend aka my wife etc). Start working at 06:00 clock up my usual average of 3 to 5 or so K's walking around site plus climbing the Modules and Vessels several times ( 20 - 40 Metres high ) knock off at 18:00 bus back to camp 18:25 walk to dining hall to pick up tomorrows crib and then to my room , sort a few things, get changed, go for a charity walk 7.3 K's.Walk/Fly
Just a quick question, if I get up and continually walk up and down the aisle of the plane, Does anyone object to me logging the distance travelled?? 🤣🤣Stretch by the Bay
This afternoon I took a stroll around Tin Can Bay Qld as a bit of a stretch after yesterday. I'm just getting used to this app so after I started the live activity feature thinking it would auto load, shortly after I thought insurance. Thankfully I started my Samsung health tracker because the live activity tracker does not load the way I thought. Life is a learning experience.I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service
Australia is a big country, and for those living in remote, rural and regional areas, access to immediate care isn’t a guarantee. For some communities, the nearest hospital is eight hours drive away.
This October, I’m taking on a month-long fitness challenge to help more people access the care they need. By going further, I hope to raise as much as possible for the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS).
Every year, the RFDS reach more than 330,000 Australians with 24-hour emergency retrieval and primary healthcare services. That’s one person every two minutes!
Together, we can keep the Flying Doctor flying and continue their life-saving work. Please donate to my challenge today!
Today I'm going for a lap of the block which is in Images as my plan. So later on I'll update the result for the day as it's fairly hilly country I may need to edit for actual result.
Hi everybody , I've put a few runs on the board, see images. Pretty sure I'll feel it tomorrow or tonight , I've done quite a bit of post exercise stretching and taken some magnesium. You have plenty of time to think while walking. One my thoughts today was how far you might have to walk to raise the alarm when faced with a medical emergency in isolation. Thankfully the doctors in the RFDS won't have to walk to their patients if everyone helps just a little bit with a donation of whatever they can afford . Cents make dollars and sharing the message is important as well. Cheers for helping , Morgan
