I walked 11.22 miles in the last 3 days. When I started this journey, one of my goals was to lose weight. But, I haven't. So, today I started a new more stringent approach; I am cutting out all grains, sugars, and dairy from my diet. I take vitamin and mineral supplements, so, I'm not worried about missing out on any key nutrients. But, I had to do something to change the course of my weight.
My heart is doing well, though. My resting heart rate is down to 58 beats a minute, and I don't breathe as hard when I walk quickly, and my heart rate while walking fast no longer hits my peak rate on my fitbit. So, that's something.
On the mapped route to Washington D.C., we are now entering Saguaro National Park. The park is in 2 sections on either side of the city of Tucson. The park is named for the large saguaro cactus, native to its desert environment. In the western Tucson Mountain District, Signal Hill Trail leads to petroglyphs of the ancient Hohokam people. In the eastern Rincon Mountain District, Cactus Forest Drive is a loop road with striking views of the desert landscape.
Well, I'm not really well liked by the trans community in Tucson, so I'll just leave them behind without further comment, as I virtually walk out of the city. Ta-ta, Tucson.
