    Glad I wasn't the only one in awe at the 20k steps. I was keeping quiet out of fear that this was a normal daily target. I've been to both canada and Iceland in the winter. Loved both but Iceland is a lot more raw.

    Oh thanks INOD - I do like raw. Puts pondering head on.

    Regarding the steps can I just reiterate - I have very very very short legs, therefore everything is further away for me. Or I'm just wearing them out.

    I started a new diary, inspired by LT :) - to give me focus on the count down to the big 5-0.

    Thanks so much for everyone who's shared my journey with me.

    New Diary here
