Mile Markers

In Georgia and Alabama, there are mile markers along the side of Route 11. I don’t recall seeing these in Virginia and Tennessee. These mile markers are a blessing and a curse.

The blessing is that it is easier to keep track of my progress. I know how far I have walked each day. I don’t have to estimate based on Google Maps and the odometer. I just do a little subtraction. Another blessing is that they help me gauge the legs of my walk. Just enough, not too little, not too much.

The curse is I know how far I have walked each day. There are times when I feel like I have surely walked farther than the mile markers indicate. In the end, I can’t argue with the mile markers. Let’s see if Mississippi has mile markers.
