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.

Search your feelings Kevy, you know this to be true. Kevy, I am correct.

Today I was able to update my profile. I am now located in Ohio!

I crossed the bridge from West Virgina into Ohio a little after noon EST today.

Thanks to Google Earth for the street level view of my path!

Great job! I'd advise you to go the other side of the highway though, the cars are coming right at ya!

Sweet!

I have the map from my house to Disneyland but I don't know how to do the exact calculation as far as my total distanced pedaled. How did you accomplish this, Moonie?

I don't know why this took so long to occur to me, but as an alternative to building a treadmill desk, people could just put one of these under their desk.

It's been awhile since I posted an update.

I'm still walking my days away, well part of them at least. I have stopped keeping track of my mileage. I found it was causing me to feel like I had to walk and as a result making me resentful of it.

So now I just walk when I feel like it, which is pretty much every day.

One slight change of late, I read an article about how shoes are bad for your feet so I've started walking at least a mile each day in just my socks. So far I'd say the results are positive with my feet feeling better at night. General foot pain has been the bane of my life since well before I started this project.

Weight wise, I'm trending in the right direction. I drop a bit, plateau a bit, gain a bit but overall I'm down over 25lbs which is a third of the way for me.

I'm still waiting for the first person to notice/comment on my weight loss.

Wow Moonie - you're looking quite svelte these days. (I'd whistle at you but never mastered whistling.)

Good job, Moonie!

I keep hearing more and more how shoes train us to walk/run improperly and that's why we have foot/knee/hip pain. Barefoot walking/running is definitely different than than wearing shoes.

Congrats on your progress!
