Milestone: One Third of Adventure - Kashmir to Kanyakumari Done !!

Friends,

For those of you following me on my weight loss journey and my adventure to Walk, Jog, Run, Bike Ride (for my friends in India Bike Ride means our own bicycle riding not motorcycle), Treadmill, or any other means of walking related exercise to virtually cover the distance from Kashmir (northern most city) to Kanyakumari (southern most city) in India; I would like to share a great news. Today, I have completed One Third of this adventure and have already walked 787.7 Miles (1267.6 Km) and that too in 5 months and 1 day. This also means that I am well within my target of under 500 days.

Thanks for all your encouragement and support. Thanks !

My First 1000 KM

Here is my first star, I completed 1000 KM today morning, 2800 KM more to go to complete my journey from Kashmir to Kanyakumari. Awesome !

July 2013 - Distance in Miles

One step at a time made it to 187.76 miles in the month. There is no stopping me now.........

Completed 500 Miles !!

I have no words to explain how I feel today. I have completed 500 Miles ! Is not that amazing for a person who could not walk 1.5 miles around 14 weeks ago has completed 500 Miles. It took me 97 days to complete 500 miles. That means it will take me 458 days (my target is < 500 days) to complete my adventure of walking the distance of 2361 miles (equals Kashmir to Kanyakumari  in India).

I am loving it. This is going to be a life changing experience for me. When I will finish my adventure of walking 2361 miles, I am very sure I will be looking for ideas to cover some other distance.

Thanks a lot guys for your support and for reading my posts.

Completed 400 Miles !!

What an achievement !!! Amazing ! Amazing ! Amazing !

I have completed 400 miles.......Awesome ! And that marks 16.9 % of my adventure for Kashmir to Kanyakumari is complete and it took me 81 days to reach 16.9 % of the total that means it will take me 478 days to complete my adventure. That is well within my target to complete it in less than 500 days. Can I do it ? Yes for sure......

 
Thanks for reading my post.

Completed 300 Miles !!

I know that I am not able to post my updates. I am very busy these days but that does not mean I am not walking. I am just not posting my results. However, today I could not stop myself to take out couple of minutes for this post.

What an achievement !!! Amazing ! Amazing ! Amazing !

I have completed 300 miles.......Awesome ! And that marks 12.9 % of my adventure for Kashmir to Kanyakumari is complete and it took me 65 days to reach 12.9 % of the total that means it will take me 505 days to complete my adventure. But, my target is to complete it in less than 500 days. Can I do it ? Yes for sure, remember first few days of the journey were couple of miles a day. So, the average is little less as of now. I will improve it real soon......

Wish me luck guys ! Thanks for reading my post.

Determination

Here is to my 2361 miles virtual walk from Kashmir to Kanyakumari.....

What's the Adventure ? Kashmir, Jammu & Kashmir, India to Kanyakumari, Tamil Nadu, India

Alright guys ! So, what's the adventure ? I keep calling my weight loss journey an adventure but not sharing what is it. I was very hesitant putting this up as I was still thinking Can I do it ? Am I promising too much ? But, you know what; No I am not promising too much. I am not over estimating myself. If I have to achieve my goals I have to do something like this.

Are you guys ready to explore my adventure ?

The plan is to Walk, Jog, Run, Bike Ride (for my friends in India Bike Ride means our own bicycle riding not motorcycle), Treadmill, or any other means of walking related exercise to virtually cover the distance from Kashmir (northern most city) to Kanyakumari (southern most city) in India. I know this is not as adventurous as walking coast to coast here in US living in the tent, camp, motel and walk your way but still as I said earlier for a person like me who is obese, have a family to support this is a good adventure. I know that I am doing it in the comfort of my home.

So, how much exactly is the distance. As per Google Maps, the walking distance from Kashmir to Kanyakumari is 3,778 km (2,361.25 miles). Here is a quick snapshot for your reference,

The timeline to cover this distance of around 2,400 miles is less than 500 days that is approximately 4 to 5 miles a day on an average.

And believe me, I am still doubtful if I can do it. I need a lot of wishes from all of you my friends and blessings of my GOD to help me achieve my goal.

Please keep sending your good wishes and prayers my way.

God, please provide me the courage and strength to achieve the positive results in my weight loss journey. Amen !
