This picture makes me laugh.
It was taken on the JMWB Walk that I did back in February wherein I walked James M. Wood Blvd. from Western Avenue into Downtown.
My birthday walks stem from Mike at Franklin Avenue who a few years ago assembled a group of people interested in walking the length of Wilshire Blvd. Since then, every year he picks a new street to explore on foot. This year Santa Monica Blvd. is the street of choice, Saturday November 22nd is the date and mama's got a new pair of shoes for the occasion.
I won't be walking the entire length though, just a portion, as 7 miles is my max out point. I know this from much prior experience.
And speaking of, I already have the route planned for my next Birthday Walk...but I'll spare the details until closer to the actual date.
See you on the streets!

hey there!
I know what you mean about knowing limits.. I was able to *just* barely do the 12.5 of the 16miles of the Pico walk last year and was unable to walk for almost 3days after.. (and was still feeling it the rest of the week). I'm going to see if I can do as close (if not better) than last year, but yeah. if my legs start giving out, it's time for the bus! ;P
See you tomorrow!

definitely don't push yourself. to this day i still randomly feel pain that ultimately stems from the wilshire walk that i did 2 years ago.
very excited though because i just got a brand new pair of sneakers and they are super comfy!!!
see you tomorrow!
