Tuner Tuesday: iWalk 3.40 miles 👨🏻‍🦯

Today’s Pond Photo…

Hi Fitblitzers…

Wow I thought lack of motivation was yesterday, but it hit me again this morning. After I tried some excuses (they never work with Sarah, lol) I put on my HOKA Speedgoats and got out on the trail. 

Once the Speedgoats touch the trail, I know it’s time for business, it’s like hitting sports mode in a car and it hunkers down ready to race. 🤣 The only trouble is that it’s going to be over 30˚C today so I needed to walk slow, as yesterday was horrific and I was over heated and could hardly talk when I got back.

I have no idea what happened to the photo above? I was walking along a straight part of the trail, and the sun was shining beautifully through the trees…So I stopped and took the photo. It usually works and you’ll get a lovely shot…But when I got home and saw this one on my big screen…I’m sorry, lol! 😭 

Sarah’s Sunshine Bench…☀️ 

Awww my lovely Wife Sarah isn’t sat on her bench! 😭 I was missing her lots today as I was hot, sweaty and ready for a hug and a coffee. So I thought I’d stop and take this photo when my Soundscape app shouted out the ‘Sarah’s Sunshine Bench’ audio beacon in my ear. 😀 

Now focus…

Anyway, i’d better stop rambling on (pun intended) and let us check if we’re in tune as it’s ‘Tuner Tuesday’. I’ve added ‘Blood Pressure’ to the ‘B’ string as I now take my blood pressure every week, as it’s so important to know your blood pressure numbers!

Motivational Quote:..💪🏼 

“I don’t need to see the full trail to know it’s worth walking. Every step I take is a statement that the challenges I face won’t hold me back. Some days the climb feels endless…But that’s when faith kicks in, my fitness keeps me moving and my focus reminds me why I started…Faith, Fitness & Focus“. – Steve (me)
