Personal best

Walking is a key part of my mental and physical health programme. The favourite is 6km at low tide on Muriwai Beach, but anywhere with a reasonable surface will do.

I use Map my Run on the iPhone to record my efforts. It's a simple enough app but like anything, prone to issues caused by the User.  This morning I somehow fumbled an unintentional Pause at the beginning. Over a kilometre later I noticed and resumed. Net effect: significant distance covered in tiny time.

The resulting spectacular pace makes my regular brisk walks look rather, well, pedestrian - it will have to go. But I'll keep it for a while out of vanity. A 93 km/hr split - not bad for a middle-aged artist.
