30 miles

July 6th, 2010 by

Last Monday I walked 30 miles.

View in EveryTrail

Because I was on my own, I decided to opt for a hike through the bay area rather than in the hills so that I was both phone and car accessible if I ran into any trouble. This made the route rather flat, so it was much easier than previous hikes and I was able to keep around an 3.8 mph pace. I was still pretty drained by the end though.

I headed from our house to Stanford with a quick stop at Google for lunch with my brother. Through a lot of Google Maps tweaking I was able to keep my route mostly on the various pedestrian/biking paths in the cities – San Tomas Aquino Creek Trail, the SF Bay Trail, 3 pedestrian bridges, Steven’s Creek Trail, 2 Baylands Parks, and even a trail next to Sand Hill Road.

It was awesome.
Resolution done.

    nope. my feet wouldn't have made it.
    (i still get blisters on the bottoms of my feet over long distances)

    i'm getting there though. i think i can probably do about 10 miles in the monkeys. i wear them as my main shoes now, so the distance is ramping up more quickly!
