I have been walking since 2003, but it was only in Mar 2018 that I starting recording my walk when my daughter gifted me an Apple Watch. It is only on a very few number of days that I have missed my walk. So in the last four plus years I have achieved 1250 days of Move record. There have been very less breaks in my walk during this period. Describing about the regularity of my walk the most notable has been a continuous daily walk from the period of 12 Sep 2019 to 11 Sep 2020 a total of 365 days, which I am describing in the next paragraph.
In 2020 on 11 Sep (Exactly two years ago) I completed 365 days (1 Year) of continuous daily walk. Rain, Fog, Heat, Travel, Corona …whatever regardless, I managed to complete average of 10 Kms a day walk measured by Apple watch. During Corona lockdown, I walked within my house and in the lawn with mask on. During travels, I walked at the Airport before the flights and after reaching the destination. During Rain I walked in raincoat and with umbrella. During very heavy rains, I walked in the basement of my Society. During this period I would have walked a total distance of 3600 Kms at an average of 10 Kms a day (I have gradually reduced my daily walk to 6 Kim’s a day now due to increasing age). I have walked in various cities of India and Abroad (USA). To avoid boredom, I often change my walking routes. I walk during morning and evenings. In the evening I walk with my society mates. I always carry my Iphone or Camera and capture nice photographs during my walk. Mostly I walk in the company of my wife and the day she takes rest I walk in the Golf ground and playe the game. I feel satisfied as everyday walk gives me one day health insurance and touchwood in the 72nd year of my life I am keeping fairly good health. Above all it has taught me discipline, persistence and will power. May be someday I will take some break or reduce my walk. My humble advice to younger generation, do walk regularly, it is your free Health Insurance. It will keep you in good physical condition and peaceful state of mind.
