Just had a chance to 'wrap-up' our FitBit tallies for the trip. We do this on almost all of our travel adventures.......as it is a fun way to illustrate how our trips tend to shift our lifestyle. We look forward to achieving a little more commitment to 'activity' when we travel and our FitBit statistics are a nice way to gauge if we are able to meet those goals. It is not as much a contest for us, but rather a way to make us recognize that we have picked up the pace a bit.
We are not as diligent about watching our 'steps' at home, but maybe we will start to pay more attention. If nothing else, this is about our health and our capacity to push our physical endurance a bit. For this trip, we anticipated a little more walking activity as we were spending so much time in Venice. Last year, for instance, at Bogliasco we also had a car. We still walked into the 'centro' almost every day, but we had an escape option! Last year we were travelling in this same general time period for 33 days.......and totaled 209,922 steps and 85.5 miles! The total just in for this year came up as 27 days, 211,335 steps and 88 miles!
We were really pleased about this......more steps in fewer days! Our average this trip was 3.26 miles a day.......versus 2.6 miles a day last year. We definitely put in some added effort this year!
