the walking thread

[dad]

welcome

[spike]

thanks, dad. my legs were pretty tired by the time i climbed the stairs to bed last night.

my kid asked me to drive to school pick up today.

[dad]

I bet. And kids aren’t too fond of walking.

don’t let that stop you from getting some movement.

definitely get the walk in before it gets hot and gross.

yeah i always have our tram cards on me in case we need to jump that home. we did so yesterday, but then she crapped her pants walking the two minutes from the tram to the house, so probably why she wants the quick car ride back today.

dad is my walking father. Spike will be my roaming uncle.

I love you both, and your wholesome pounding of pavement and trail.

I envy you guys who live in walkable cities with a public transportation infrastructure.

The burbs are hell.

Rain this evening prevented a walk, but set my alarm for earlier than usual tomorrow. 78% chance I hit snooze and tell myself i'll go after work.

Got a pretty good walkable area, but it's too hot lately. Can't wait until October.

I don't know if I want to be known as the umbrella guy.

Just wear a really thick, heavy mask. Nobody will know it's you.

We’re like a kilometer from the end of one of the main east/west tram lines on our side of town, which is pretty perfect as it’s never too crowded either way. Like we could almost live without a car, but having a young kid probably not. Maybe eventually.

Walked three miles and ran the 4th. My heart didn't like it.
