I tend to take my little girl on walks. Put her in the stroller, and away we go. Sometimes we go for a good 45-60 minutes and go quite a distance since I have a long stride and tend to truck along pretty fast. I consider it an excersise, not just a comfortable stroll.
Well last night was goregeous - not too hot, but still shorts and t-shirt weather. So we started out on a walk. And we kept going. And going. And going.
After 90 minutes, we had covered a good 12 km loop, going from the centre/west part of town to the extreme eastern edge and back again.
Last night, I felt great.
Today, I hurt.

Holy carp! Guess there is no reason I can't walk home from work tonight (about 4 miles), huh?
I think it's awesome you do that. As she gets older, you'll have to continue the walking tradition.
*packs shoes*
Does this mean that you're getting old?
That's such a great time of day to go for a walk. I love the weather this time of year in the early evenings.
Walking your kids is great. Does she sleep through most of it? My kids almost always corked off on a long walk. I never went super fast like you do. I liked looking at everybody's houses too much.
I agree with HD.
Happy Father's Day, Meemo.
HD & Carey: No, I am NOT getting old. I am young and spry, dammit! :-)
Swami: thanks. And no, she normally doesn't sleep. She is wide awake, taking in all the sights, pointing at different things, and gibber-gabbering away. It's our daddy-daughter time.
I tagged you on my blog in the seven things meme. That will give you an excuse to update!
Well, I must admit, I'm bummed you are *not* getting old. I have a thing for older men. ;-)
What a little Engergizer Bunny you are! Sometimes we get lost in walks, uh?
