Backsliding

After a few of my hot flashes and sitting at my desk most of the day I got stir crazy and hiked to Ivar's Fish Bar along Alaskan Way. It's 1.4 miles up and down Madison. Getting there was almost a breeze. Coming back was a disappointment. I had to cheat part way back and take the escalator in the Seattle Public Library. I walked a bit on the escalator, so I cheated the cheating. As slow as I was climbing Little Si last week, I thought I would have done better at this very short jaunt. Recovery is taking longer than I thought. I'm going to call it a 300 foot elevation gain. Not much.

Total distance for the day: 2.8 miles; 4.48 km
Total distance for the year: 129.52 km
Total elevation gain for the year: 1,600 feet
