Janthon Day 16: Walking 6.5km, Time 1hr 10min, Gym activity unquantifiable, Weather grey and windy (again)
I am trying very hard with my animal theme this Juanthon.
The basic rule is that going to Whipsnade Zoo would be cheating (fish, barrel, shooting) - even if it is a nice cycle ride away. I am allowed only pictures of things I come across in the course of my peregrinations. There is however no rule to say the creatures have to be real or living (I have already got away with a poster of an alpaca instead of the real thing).
So for your entertainment today: I offer a monkey in a conservatory.
Now I'm not sure even this is fair game - after all you have to give the credit to the person who decided to turn their conservatory into a rainforest but it will have to do.
Today's walk was a few miles further along the canal than normal as I started from Berkhamsted, where they have an outdoor gym.
Natalie Bowers has already described her outdoor gym, so I thought I ought to join in the fun. And fun it was as the machines give you permission to be act like a kid in a playground. Of all the toys serious pieces of fitness equipment, the walking machine was the most disorientating. It had a platform for each foot that swung like a pendulum. The arc it proscribed was like walking but not very much. After hammering away at it for some time it completely disrupted my senses, so when I tried to walk on the path I felt like a sailor who had been afloat for several months, i.e. all over the place.
I have thus found a way to feel drunk without actually drinking. I will mark that down as another Janathon discovery.
