I have taken to walking having a sudden determination to lose the weight I added over the years due to the combinations of quitting smoking and starting hormones in the same month. Back then I didn't weigh myself as I had been the same weight for years and didn't notice the encroaching pounds.
This is the route I walked the last time I walked. I will update it whenver I get back from walking. I use that to measure the distance I covered. That route was 3.79 miles give or take .10 mile
To avoid the heat I have been walking in the early hours of the morning. As I am living as a woman full time in all but a legal name I vary my route to prevent someone from laying in wait for me. I stick to mostly heavily trafficed roads and avoid areas which might have a lot of cover for someone to jump out of. Tonight though I think someone tried to figure out if i was a prostitute or not. The guy pulled up in front of me stopped to the my left side with his passenger window down. I of course zig right and look at the police car which was driving away down the road a bit. The guy turns on the cross road just in front of me. I zig left back on my original course and keep walking. He pulls up beside me and I already have my cellphone already in my hand with 911 punched in and he asked "Do you know of any clubs" I am sure that the proper answer if I was doing what he thought I was would have been "Sure! Need a date?". You just gotta love the kind of education you can get from the Cops TV show. Needless to say I simply said "No sorry", and kept walking. The guy drove off and I didn't see him again. I of course was ecstatic about that fact
I was dressed conservatively. I was wearing a pair of white and blue sneakers, blue jeans, A purple long sleeved shirt with a white inset at the neck with red and green flowers (looks like I am wearing layers but it's not), my hair up in a ponytail, carrying a black cloth purse on my shoulder. So please don't think I dress in a way that encourages men to think that I am out there with the intent to sell my body.
