Walking A Mile (or 26.2) In My Shoes

Don't know that I can accomplish it, but this Saturday I'm setting off at 4:30 a.m. to see how far I can quick walk.

I've gone as far as 15 miles non-stop. But, I feel I need to try to go further. Though I've been doing 30 miles on the exercycle and/or walking 5-8 miles daily, I just feel my walking stamina has diminished a bit in the last couple of months. I don't want to take any steps back toward where I've come.

And so, I've mapped out a route from my house to Santa Monica that totals 27 miles. I need to walk at least 16 and hope to go further, 10.2 miles further.
