My morning began in Eagle Harbor waiting for my walking partner....as you can see the clouds stayed over the lake and sunshine shone on our walk.
We signed up to walk from Copper Harbor to Eagle Harbor...which we thought (were told) was 12 miles.
12 miles had me pondering the possibility of me being able to complete this walk...whose benefits go to our local Women's Shelter Home...
And, so we began...a beautiful day for a walk and talk with a friend.
This was our one and only sit down break on the walk. About maybe 10 mins.
The rest was walking. If you have ever driven the road between Eagle Harbor and Copper Harbor, you might remember the 'gentle hills' and curves. Our little feet stepped the whole way.
When we passed the second road to Brockway Mountain, we were told, we were walking 14 miles, not 12.
And, while this picture isn't good, you can read the sign....yes, we at least walked 14....but, we started at the end of town and ended at the end of town.... My step counter on my phone today read "35,544 Steps" which is 16.95 miles! That is the furthest, I recall ever walking!
A first for Me!
Here are our smiling faces at mile marker 13 and a half or perhaps 14!
And here we are at the finish line! Completed!!! We were last and there were cheers....we Made IT!
Thanks Michele for inviting me to walk and for knowing I could do it! I am sticking with I walked 16.95 miles today!
Oh, and Michele has the fitbit and it recorded we walked equal to 100 flights of stairs with the hills along the way! I am tougher than I gave myself credit for!
