Round the World in 80 Days - Please post your kms/steps/miles for Monday 25 January (Part 2). Ricky is back :D

101 Replies

Dear Travellers,

We are now on Day 31 of our voyage around the world.

After a hectic weekend of travelling down the west coast of Thailand, a crazy detour night in Bangkok and climbing those towers in KL, the steamer has arrived in Koh Samui off the east coast of Thailand. This evening we are dancing Samba on the beach and Ricky Martin and his rather beautiful backing singers are singing and dancing with us. Your favourite cocktails served all night.

The weekly stats for last week are phenomenal. To get around the world in 80 days, we need to achieve 501 kms per day or 3507 per week. What we ended up achieving was on average 595kms per day and 4169.46kms for the week. With the extra kms in the suitcase, I have some day trips planned. You will definitely love all of these and not too much of a detour before we reach Hongkong.

The stats below are for the travellers that checked in every single day last week and achieved a daily average of 10ks and above.

Travellers that achieved 10ks

Kars 10.47

Keep-on 10.21

Keep-on-Going 10.92

Lucca 10.36

StephB 10.16

Travellers that achieved 11ks

Trafford 11.19

Rainshine 11.74

Flossie 11.44

NickyNoo 11.68

JayseeSkinny 11.88

Travellers that achieved 12ks and 13ks

Gonti 12.77

LottoLose 13.34

Darrenchef 13.47

Florence 13.55

Travellers that achieved 16ks or more

Moreless 16.64

Lexi 20.96

Jog-on 23.37

Prin 25.13

And for everyone else (including me) well done for sticking with the challenge and not giving up. You will be thankful you didn't. It probably doesn't feel that way right now and you want to do much more. But you are not in competition with anyone - this is your very special journey. As long as keep on moving and don't stand still then you are making progress.

Happy Travels everyone :) :) :)

I love your new name!

in reply to LessToLose

Thank you - first one to notice :D

hi Lizzy i've done today the grand total of 2174 steps which in miles is 0.41 that's the best this week up to yet take care Alan xx

Hi Alan

You are selling yourself short. When I manage 10,000 steps, I've done 7.5kms. So 0.00075 x 2174 = 1.63kms or 1 mile.

You are doing so great. Glad you're one of our travellers 😃😃

Evening Fizzy 😉

Lovely picture and amazing how you motivated so many people to get moving that little bit more .

Total for today is 7.02 km. Don't tell me we can share Ricky around before that Lucca notices??? Yay, lets have a party 💃 🎊 🎈 💃 🎉🍸

in reply to Elissy

Lizzy was a bit sneaky wasn't she - squeezing Ricky into the itinerary when I'd already logged my kms in the early thread :-O :-D

Elissy profile image
Elissy3kg in reply to

Welllll, you didn't give anyone else a chance the other day ( not for a lack of trying 😉)

We had a fantastic time as Ricky had finally recovered 😁

I may need to take some Tibetan herbs and lie down in a darkened room... :-( :-)

Elissy3kg in reply to

Yep, another early night for Lucca, lets see who Lizzy has lined up for tonight 😉😁

Ahem :O I spent all day in the hammock on the phone persuading him to come and sing for us. I think you wore him out on Havelock Island :D :D

Good work everyone if anyone would like to buy some kms from me in payment for completing my tax return please feel free to pm me😂 Or should that be😢

Hi lizzyfizz 😀

I feel really proud to see my name on your list. I'm trying really hard, and even exercising when under normal circumstances I would have made excuses not to ( any excuse to laze about on the settee on an evening) This challenge has really encouraged me to get more active and I'm loving it.

Thanks again

Nic 😀

Waffling on and forgot to post km for today 😁

Swimming - 1.25 km

Steps - 4768

Morning,

Unfortunately no. I would love to go and also to Japan. My daughter is going Japan hopefully with her school as she is learning Japanese. Maybe I can hide in her suitcase, I need to loose weight first tho lol.

Well our trip will be a taster, then maybe you could plan a Far East holiday and do whistle stops of all these places. Put it on your bucket list :)

14.4 km for Monday here. Dog is still shattered. Think it will be only a short walk tonight as he was limping a little bit (He's got mild hip dysplasia)

I think I'll just stick with the Samba tonight :) Maybe see if I can sneak Ricky away from Lucca and Elissy :) lol

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to Carpo82

Carpo! A million apologies!! I don't know how I missed you and even worse when you clocked up such a brilliant number of K's! No wonder the poor dog only wanted a short walk yesterday :)

I hope you can forgive my oversight, I deserve slapped wrists! ;)

If I ever miss you again, I give you full permission to give me an ear bashing!! :D

Carpo82 profile image
Carpo82 in reply to moreless

Haha, no worries. I was late reporting my k's and the amount of posts you have to read and reply to... I'm amazed you manages as many K's as you do yourself, lol

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to Carpo82

It's not easy, I have to say and I sometimes find myself pedaling away at crazy hours! My grandson told me it was "ridiculous" that I'd woken him up at 6am, by being too noisy on the bike! :D
