Lethbridge Rucker Walking 🚶‍♂️

 Dixie and I go for an hour walk carrying a 30lbs weight in a back pack.

It might seem I’m giving my friends heck for not walking enough but walking with 30 lbs on my back pack slowed my step count right down.  I 😉 enjoyed the walk, 30 lbs is a lot of weight believe it.  I was debating whether to get another 30 lbs weight to walk with double but it’s actually quite a load to walk with one 1️⃣ weight.

An easy walk my average heart rate was 114 bpm. And now burn 382 calories on the walk. A max bpm at 139

My average pace is 16:52 per km 

I stopped at my parents for an ice cream sandwich and water 💧 kept on walking 🚶‍♂️ 

30 lbs is actually a significant Handicap.

I could feel it in my legs 🦵 and feet  👣 and back. 

Do next time you say jungling around 30 lbs is easy, putting a case iron plate of 30 lbs weights in a back pack is the easiest way to relate.  I slowed right down, hopefully I’ll be a better friend and go at more of a reasonable pace with this and burn more calories as well.

52 days quit smoking. That’s 82 days this year. Yahoo.

Still doing he non smoking 🚬 

Hi there! It sounds like you had a really purposeful walk with a good workout challenge, carrying that 30 lbs backpack. It’s impressive how much of an impact the extra weight has on your pace and effort—it definitely adds a real sense of resistance and strength training to your walk. I admire your dedication, especially celebrating 52 days without smoking—that’s a fantastic achievement!

Walking with added weight like that can be a great way to build strength and endurance, though it’s wise to listen to your body to avoid overexertion. If you’re thinking of adding more weight, maybe consider gradually increasing it or switching to different types of exercise for variety and to prevent strain.

Mmm 🤔 

A good pace and a good 😊 walk 

Cheering for you all on your fitness journeys.

I’m still in the lead for my step count for the week. And two days left of the challenge.
