Thread: Running Out of Time

Greetings All,
I thought a short update and some more notes on planning might be of interest. I had another (my third) walk up Kuri Hill on Friday and noted some modest improvements. Faster up to the low trig and got about half way to the top. My block circuit this morning was easier as well. Still an awful long way to go though.
I have also done some more planning. Together with the goals mentioned earlier some longer term some longer term objectives have been set including repeating my first trip into the bush mentioned above 60 years later. Planners often refer to SMART goals that is goals that are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time Bound. To the younger set the just do it approach may work but for those of more advanced years a more strategic approach to fitness will likely be needed. For me writing down my goals and objectives and keeping a written record of progress or lack thereof is useful. Some may find this anal but those that have read some of my posts will have formed an opinion on that already.
Anyway if you are walking along the track to the Makino Hut on 29 March 2023 and see some old fudd huffing and puffing along say hello. It might be me.
Regards Grandpamac.
