Just another 6 miles to go before January 1st and I will have accomplished my 100 Mile Fitness Challenge! I started on October 20th and got 94 miles / 150 kilometers done within two months so it must be easy peasy getting there in time.
Last Tuesday I went on another 15.5 km solo-walk, from Terschuur to Amersfoort. It is called Barneveldse Beek, after the stream that runs along the track for about 2 km. I liked that part but overall this isn’t a hike I would recommend: I had to pass a lot of motorways as well :\ Thankfully it was a quiet day, but it will probably be horrible on Saturday or at rush hour.
The weather was absolutely GORGEOUS — cold, frosty and sunny! That made it a hike to remember after all. Look at some pictures if you don’t believe me ;)
I came by some kawaii donkeys (aren’t they the cutest animals?) and I even saw a Kingfisher — of course that one was too quick to photograph. So I had a nice winter walk this week, even though it is still officially autumn ;)
Something really bad has to happen to prevent me from accomplishing the 100 Mile Fitness Challenge in time! Oops, better touch some wood — no need to tempt the gods :\

You mean, like, when I’m finished I have to start all over again? :-o
Ha, I might even do that! :) But first I actually have to get there :)
And yes, I’ll behave next time and post my numbers in the comment on the 100Mile blog — I’m sorry to have inconvenienced you! You’re doing a great job as it is :)

Also–I know this is kind of a lot to ask but when you give your link on the challenge blog each week can you also list your miles in the comments section? My computer time is sometimes really short (as it was last week) and I can’t always pop over right away while tallying to see your total number. :)
