9th Walk and Beyond

I have completed 9 long walks so far, this walk being the longest one, about 22 KMs. I walked from Masab Tank to Narsingi Village and back to Mehdipatnam. This was on the 11th of July 2009. Very tiring, the plan was to return to Masab tank which was only 2 KMs away. I could not make it as I was completely drained. I took an auto rickshaw back home. Unfortunatley, I ran out of battery in my iPod which tracks the distance and pace. so the recorded distance in iPod was only 17 KM :(. After this marathon, I did not go on any walk as was busy with my work for more than a month. On Monday, that is the 17 August 2009, I went to the gym impulsively and paid Rs. 1350 and enrolled for a month. I told the instructor that I would only be doing the treadmill which the instructor agreed for. I did 8 Kms in 1.2 hours on the treadmill. As soon as I completed, the instructor walked to me to tell me that it was too much of a walk and I should not exert myself so much on the first day. I told him about my past walks and he was fine with it. I went to walk on Tuesday, again for 8 KMs in 1.2 hours. Again the instructor came running and told that the treadmill cannot be blocked by one preson for so long and also the treadmill is not meant for such continuous long walks, then I told him that I joined the gym with that condition and if this is not ok with the gym, the gym should return my money. Instructor went and spoke to his boss. Instructor came back and we both had an arugument for about ten minutes before we decided on splitting. He gave back my money and I was happy that I got my money back which I paid impulsively. This weekend Ramazan starts and I could not have really got the worth of the money during this month.
