Going by my VeloViewer Infographic, I’ve had 122 active days so far in 2022! Which means, I’ve done at least one cycle or walk each day so far this year!
At long last, I’ve done my first 30+ mile cycle of 2022! Next goal, is aiming for 40 miles!
Where it says running… That’s my walking data!
Still not the best month for cycling! But at least, it’s most miles, I’ve done so far in single month this year! Plus did first cycle of over 30 miles of 2022!
