Esskay reacted to Frankybaby66's post in the thread Best app to accurately record distances, elevation and descent per day with
Like.
You're right, generally speaking. For me personally though, I have to make sure my heart rate doesn't go too high, having somehow managed to survive 2 (count'em!) cardiac arrests. I sometimes push a bit hard up hills when adrenalin overrides... -
I guess I am a walker. For the simple reason there are no hiking trails where I live. Fwiw. The words walker and hiker do no translate well in my language. In Dutch, lopen refers to the physical act of putting one foot in front of the other...

Esskay reacted to JohnLloyd's post in the thread Death of American pilgrim in Castromaior today with Like.
Words are hard to come by at a moment like this, but I hope there is comfort in the manner of your husband's passing, walking in Nature, and surrounded by love and compassion. I wish you and your family and friends well.
