I'm going to Chicago...

...by foot! Yeah, you've heard me! I'm walking from Houston to Chicago!

Ok, ok, I'm not literally walking to Chicago, but I'm going to walk the distance over the course of a year. If I walked 5 miles every single day, I could actually finish it by the end of this year, but that's not totally realistic because there will be days that I'm too busy, sore, or the weather will be nasty. So I'm not placing a timetable on this goal, but I expect to reach the equivalent distance of Chicago about a year from now. But the sooner the better!

There's about 1090 miles of walking ahead of me, and I will be eating away at this number in five mile intervals. There will even be some days where I walk twice and do ten miles (I have done that on several occasions in the past).

The important thing is that it will be great exercise, and I will lose a lot of weight in the process. I expect by the end of the summer I'll be smoking hot (as in sexy, yeah). I'm also going to start doing sit ups and push ups every day to improve my muscle tone. And if everything goes well with finding a job and going back to school, I will have a lot going for me! No girl will be able to resist the awesomeness that is me!



(I'm being somewhat sarcastic about stating how awesome I am and how attractive I'll be, but not totally. ^^)

Tomorrow brings the first 5 miles of this journey! I'll keep updating my progress periodically!

Whoa! You don't kid around do you! I bet you have had some freaked out reactions to this adventure of yours!!!

P.S. They say it is the journey, not the destination that counts..
