Finally got around to writing a new post (I attempted one earlier but the PC crashed and lost it!) As Ellee<\/a> reminded me its now 5 weeks since I posted which is some sort of record in my 6 years of blogging.<\/p>\n

I thought I would do a quick round up of the year.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0Here is the year according to\u00a0my\u00a0 Eatwatch<\/a> chart ( A Program that made the transition from the Treo650 to the Treo680 nearly intact) . I’ve finally made it to my target of 78kg set 2 years ago. As you can see the oscillations in weight are getting less as my self control is beginning to improve. The worse peak in August is what happens when you stay on a small\u00a0island with good food and precious little else to do! (Note that the graph is computed from daily weighing’s. The blue dots are Km walked.<\/p>\n

A great year for my walking.<\/a><\/p>\n

Firstly doing The Pennine Way<\/a> in 15days at the end of April\/May. taking just over half million steps compared to the million steps from St Jean Pierre Port to Santiago de Compostella.<\/p>\n

Then in September for 23 days\u00a0I crossed\u00a0the Alps\u00a0walking\u00a0the GR5<\/a> around 356 miles.<\/p>\n

and of cause just recently I’ve met Sally in Norfolk<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/a> So in the\u00a0last couple of months we have been doing many walks in East Anglia. Here is a rather neat map with all the GPS data from the walks superimposed on it.<\/p>\n

Will be interesting to see what 2007 will bring. My guesstimate for 2006 is over 1000miles of walking.<\/p>\n
