All of my stats are on Endomondo so that’s what I’m sticking to. Below you’ll see my history. Give it (or something else) a try. It’s so awesome to keep track of your progress.

Today, I went out for a leisurely stroll and retraced my steps using the Endomondo program. Turns out, I used to walk the .57 miles to the cafe where I would have some coffee and wait for the back pain to stop, then I’d continue walking the remaining .16 miles back home. It was nothing today but a nice leisurely stroll around the neighborhood. Back in January, it felt like I was going to need to call 911 – or at least a taxi.

I love that tools exist to do these sort of things. Endomondo is such a great program.
