59. Take a minimum of 300 walks
Start Date: March 13th, 2008
The walks have to be at least 45 minutes. It doesn't matter how far I go or at what speed, since these are more for my own enjoyment than any sort of exercise goal, but they have to be at least 45 minutes each.
Because it's been really warm here the past few days, I've decided to start this. Not just because it's on the list, but because it calms me down to walk through the woods or along the river and watch the ducks, because they amuse the hell out of me. I also realized the lack of sunlight was aiding my depression, so I wanted to get some sun on my face, lol.

57-100. From September 17th to October 28th, 2008: With as much walking as I've done here in Edinburgh since getting here, I'm probably short on the number. But I'm willing to be. It has to be at least 100 by now, and honestly I feel much better for it.
100-175. From October 28, 2008 to April 28th 2009: With Edinburgh, Ireland, and now over a week back home (while daily walks of two miles) I'm guesstimating that I'm at 175 now. That's probably low, actually. I've been horrible at putting them here but I've been walking a hell of a lot and can now fit into my old jeans to prove it. lol
176. June 30th, 2009: Walked at least two miles today from the library and around the city a little.
