I did it!
I walked Roosevelt Park twice, and climbed the hill to my house, all without stopping!
I have no idea how far I walked. Not too far.
I started from my house at a stroll, to warm up.
The park's downhill from my house, but climbs quickly up another hill.
By the time I got there, apx. 4 blocks, I'd increased my pace, for aerobic effect.
I stayed on grass as much as possible.
Porkchop really liked it.
As I descended the top the first time, saw a hawk on a chain link fence, over looking a football field. That's the only time I slowed, so I wouldn't scare it off.
The park was nearly empty. One homeless guy, sleeping. One guy on a bicycle. One guy walking two dogs.
The second time around, the sun finally cleared the mountains and trees by the time I reached the top.
I wanted to stop for a rest, but I just kept going.
Te hill, up to my house, is steep. But it's only two blocks. But it's San Francisco steep, Pacific Grove steep.
I was breathing loudly, by then. Bet I woke people up!
The whole way around, I coughed up crap out of my lungs. So, by the time I reached that hill, I could breathe deeply, without choking.
