I took the past couple of days off of walking. To be honest, I just didn't want to, and I needed the rest. My legs have been screaming at me, and I know when to listen.
I am sure that most of you have heard about Matt, the man who quit his job to go "walkabout" across the US from New York to Oregon, but just in case you've just come out from under your rock:

Most people only dream of doing something like what Matt is doing. I am one of them. I think his journey is amazing, and I only wish I had the ability to do the same. The sites he has seen, and the people he has encountered, are incredible. I'm just blown away by the whole thing. If I had the resources, I would travel to him and walk beside him as long as I could.
So, after staying up until the wee hours of the morning reading every post and looking at every picture Matt has posted along his journey so far, I am now filled with wanderlust. The best I can do to cure it is walk in my home and add to my step count, then maybe hit the park later for some much needed cardio.
Step count today: 520
Steps I'm behind: 7,064
