Hey guys
some time in the next year, I'll start out ridiculously early, and walk all the way to Disneyland.

We'll meet up and have drinks :)

Great on the weight loss! Pity about the job changes but that's life.

Yep. Still waiting for the office to be finished. I keep trying to convince my wife that I can use it elsewhere while waiting for the office but she's not buying it :( In the meantime I'm getting outside for more walks - something I hope to keep up after I get used to the treadmill routine.

While eternally optimistic, I have to allow for the slight possibilty that I might not be ready to meet up in '09.

I've gotten into the habit of updating my sig on Mondays. So I just updated it to:

Walking to DLR: 2,639 Miles | Miles walked: [197.40] | % Complete: [7.48] | Est. Arrival Date: 11/19/2016

Total miles is based on Google Maps driving directions: 2,639

Miles Walked is directly from the treadmill odometer: 197.40

Percent complete is: Miles Walked / Total Miles

Est. Arrival Date is: Today() + (miles remaining / ave miles per day)

Average miles per day is calculated using a starting date of 3/17/08
Currently we are at 238 days walking.

So my planned arrival date is:

11/10/08 + (2441.6 / 0.833)
11/10/08 + 2931
11/19/2016
A Saturday :D


Also of note:

My miles per day figure is pathetic due in part to a couple of weeks of vacation, a leg injury, a few lazy weeks and the fact that I count weekend days even thought I don't generally work/walk on them.

I have been much more consistent in the last two months, so that figure is slowly climbing and as it does, the arrival date gets closer. I seem to be dropping off about a month each time I update the sig line.

Oh, and I've upped my walking speed from 1.2 to 1.3mph. It makes a difference.

You're still wrong

197.4 miles / 238 days = 0.829411764705882

Skipping the rest of the calculations, I jump to:

Estimated arrival date: December 1, 2016

:D

No no no! Don't let him off the hook. He is presenting misleading information and taking credit he doesn't deserve.

He has consistently lied in this endeavor and I am not letting him get away with it!!!

Ahhh! I see your problem. Well at least one of your many problems.

Today. As of today I have walked 197.4 miles in 238 days. However I have only recorded mileage as of yesterday. So in the spreadsheet formula I subtract one from the total days.

197.4 / 237 = 0.83291139240506329113924050632911
Which I choose to round off to 0.833

The sig line stays as written.

And once again, you can piss off.

But, from earlier today:
So; were you lying then or are you lying now?

Hey, once you stop exaggerating your claims and misrepresenting your actual successes (or more specifically, the lack thereof), I will stop harassing you. Until then, I shall remain ever vigilant against the falsehoods and tyranny that spew forth.

:D

Next thing we know, you two will be picking out window treatments and china patterns. :p
