taking it all in stride


i am living in the studio this week, as are a handful of fellow students. i arranged passes for us so we go to the gym every day for excercise and showers, and i begin my commitment to the training in earnest. it feels good, knowing i can walk in safety at night or in inclement weather.



today's purchase: the pedometer. back at the studio i find a measuring tape and pace off 10 strides in a test of 20 trials to determine my walking stride. the average (or what i'll set the pedometer at) is 28.8 inches or 73 cm
