A Balance of Harmonies: Shades

I walk about four miles (6.4 k) every day I don’t work (three to five days a week) and I read last week that calories burned has to do with oxygen used (so the harder something is to do the more calories burned). Some guy tested on a tread mill and found out that it’s easier to walk until you’re (or at least he’s) going 12 mile (19 k) an hour, so running at slower speeds is actually better than walking.

I walked this 4 miles in an hour fifteen or twenty, so I decided to try to jog part of the way. The first day took me just as long as walking, but yesterday and today (after less than two weeks of speedy trips) I walked/jogged it in almost exactly an hour. I didn’t even have to change the disc for my book on tape.

Now I’m going to try to finish the route in 48 minutes (5 miles or 8 k an hour), but although the running part of the trip gets easier each day, I don’t expect to get there for a while.
