I did it!

Hi everyone.

I just went over the data using Excel to see how many steps I did and the current total is 1447.48 km!

That means that I walked the distance to Cambodia! I reached my goal of 1355.8 km and passed it by  91.68km!

But it's not over yet. Now that I reached my goal I will set another to finish off this fundraiser with a bang!

My goal is to walk over 10,000 km at least 5 times a week for the 6 weeks left!

That would mean I would do at least 300,000 steps in the next 6 weeks around 345 km.

So let's get to it and see if I can reach goal number two!

Thank you for following me on this adventure!

Talk to you soon!

Update and a lot of data coming soon!

Hi everyone its definitely been a while since I last posted but this week I have walked over 10,000 steps everyday expect for yesterday since it was my birthday so I took a bit of a break and only did around 7,500 steps. It's getting very close to my trip! So I am really putting in that extra effort.

Yesterday I got my backpack for the trip. Boy those things are expensive but I'm hopping on using it a lot in the years to come.

We will see in my next post how close I am to my goal!

Until then.

Look for adventure's big or small!

Lots of Data.

Hi everyone! ,

I got behind in putting my data in my form with all the school work and my job and trip preparation and getting sick ect... and so a friend of mine helped me out and found a way to export the data directly from the fit bit. He put it in an excel sheet(Excel is one of the rare programs I can't seem to understand.) and it gives the total, the only problem is that I can't post a table like the last times because the data is arranged completely differently. And so all I can do is post the current total and the next time I will be able to tell you, readers, how much more I did that week

Without further ado I am at, 1121.6 km which means only 234.2 km to go on this challenge to reach 1355.8 km one tenth of the distance to Cambodia.

Now that I am caught up in putting all the data in I will be able to post more.

Fit data

First week back to school last week and there was so much to do. I got a lot of walking in though and all that data will be up in the next couple days.

Data

Hi everyone!

As I had mentioned on my last post I did more walking on January 7th which is why I put it up again. On Friday I did a lot of walking but my fit bit did not record any of it. Which brings me to my next point I just received a new electronic device to calculate the walking distance which means starting Monday I will be able to start my quest to catch up on all the data that my fit bit miss read or deleted.

 Date                Day #              Treadmill stats                     Fit bit          total for day   Grand Total

January 7th	109	2.87 miles 4.61 km 2.12 miles 3.41 km	50:05 minutes 40:01 minutes	No data	8.02 km	385.36 km
January 8th	110	0	0	No data	---------------	385.36 km

More Data to come soon

Data.. sort of

Well it seems the fit bit is again not connecting to my computer. Luckily I have been doing walks on the treadmill and calculating it that way which means I do have some data to show. Also I will be getting something new to calculate the distances and so I should be able to jump back on track in no time.

 Date                Day #              Treadmill stats                     Fit bit          total for day   Grand Total

January 4th	106	2.05 miles 3.29 km	40:02 minutes	No data	--------	374 km
January 5h	107	2.08 miles 3.34 km	40:04 minutes	No data	----------	377.34 km
January 6th	108	0	0	No Data	-----------	377.34 km
January 7th	109	2.87 miles 4.61 km	50:05 minutes	No data	-------------	381.95 km

So that's it for today. I might be doing more walking today so I will add that no the total in my next post.

I now have 973.85 miles left until Cambodia!

Fit bit data erased

My fit bit was not working as you all know so I gave it to someone I thought could fix it. This person played with it and it syncs now but a whole month of doing a 2 and a half hour walks was deleted. Which means I am a lot behind. And needless to say a bit crushed. I have 985.09 km left until I reach my goal of 1 km for every 10 it take to get to Cambodia and I have 141 days left until then. Which means I need to do 6.9 km a day. I have no clue if this goal is even possible anymore since I do have school and work and its winter(20-30 cm of snow only today) so not many chances to go outside for a walk. The only option really is to go on the treadmill which I find much less appealing than walking outside. With all obstacles yes the goal line is hard to see but I won't give up until the final day of my walking challenge has come to pass and I did my best to overcome all the obstacles and reach my goal of 1355.8 km.

So I leave you with this. A lot more walking to come and a lot of hard work, but all adventures have their ups and downs and the only way through is by keeping positive, working hard, and finding creative solutions to overcome them.
