Do you know the Proclaimers song 500 miles? I do it's the song of my uni days, at the end of the night our local DJ used to split the dance floor down the middle and get us to yell " Da da lat da" at each other. You should try it :) it's good for the spirit if not the neighbours.
So this years challenge as titled above is to walk 500 miles.
Sounds a bit easy?
That's 500 miles in addition to the normal mileage i clock up in a day. Thanks to my trusty Fitbit i know thats about 10,000 steps or 4 miles.
So that's (365*4)+500 = 1960 miles in 2016 or 5.36 miles per day if you prefer.
There are no sick days if i come in under i have to make it up.
This should also help me out with my fitness which has rather fallen by the wayside, i'll be over on Nerd Fitness this year as well tracking progress on my Daily Battle Log.
That just leaves me with an introduction, please met my old shoes and my new shoes. As you can see thanks to my Fitbit encouraging me to walk more last year i walked right through the soles of my trusty old trainers. They had their last hurrah on NYE as i climbed Arthur's seat in them and now they have been consigned to the recycling bin and replaced by the rather pink pair on the right.

You will be seeing a lot more of my trainers so make friends.
