Friday brought a walk through a cold, spitting rain:

Eight walks in a row! This is my first five-day all-walking week since Barcelona last November, and my first in Redmond since..

WOW! This is my first Redmond-based five-day walking week since 11 September through 15 September 2006! Three months after this experiment started! A couple of notes after revisiting those posts.. The last time I had a five-day all-walking work week in Redmond:
- I was three months into my position in the SQL CoE.
- The count in the Drove category was twelve. Did Not Compete stood at nine. The Walked to the Bus category didn't even exist.
- My grandson was weaning me off of walking him to school.
- The first SQL Ranger rotation was still six weeks away (we're currently in the home stretch on rotation 4).
I had no idea that a full week of walking through Redmond was such an historic event, or that it had been so long since I'd had such a week (there were a few holiday- or vacation-shortened all-walking weeks, as well as several involving walking to the bus, but not all the way to the office).
With the kids out of school next week, I should have an opportunity to sleep an hour later in the morning next week. Hopefully I can keep this historic (at least in DWWTWT? context) trend intact.
Have a great weekend!
