My Actifit Report Card: August 8 2026

For several days now, I'd been planning to walk from my house to my aunt's house, which is a bit out of the way, down in the city center. Although I was wondering why I hadn't walked that route in so long, and since I've been feeling really tired lately after going for a brisk walk.

I haven't taken the time to look into the Actifit app in detail, so I turned to Google Maps to map out the route I was going to take today and figure out how many kilometers I'd cover, how long it would take me, and how long it might actually take. (Yes, also because I still don't know how to use this app very well.)

The truth is, today was the day, and even though I missed the time I’d set to go out, I decided to go anyway because I’m supposed to be building the habit of walking, and if I don’t do it that way, I feel like I’m missing out.

I took some photos along the route, but here I’m sharing just a few—perhaps the best ones I captured during the walk.

I’m not going to lie to you—even though I was walking, the route was tough because I had a headache, my leg hurt, and suddenly I felt like I couldn’t breathe properly and even one of my ribs hurt, but I didn’t stop; I just slowed down for a bit and then started walking much faster again, since my plan is to build up my endurance so I can start jogging in about two weeks 🫤

As I walked, I thought about how this was a route I used to walk back and forth every day with a backpack full of things—because I had to, either since there wasn’t enough public transportation or because I didn’t have enough cash to pay for the fare.

I felt good because today I was walking it for the sake of exercise and to stay healthy, not out of necessity because I had no way to get around.

Well, that’s all for now.
The photos shown here are my own, and I’m using a translator to write this post.
