Push-ups :17 times
Walking :a total of 55 minutes
Standing on one foot :11 minutes each
Cigarettes :0
jogging-on-the-spot :20 minutes

It has been seven years and one hundred and sixty-one days in a row since I broke
free from smoking.
I was able to keep 17-time push-ups for the third successive day though I've
begun feeling it pretty hard, and I kept greater than 9-time push-ups for the
one year and one hundred and eighth straight day.

It's greatly and beautifully sunny in Nagoya, and I feel it's really nice
because it's not too hot or not too cool with low humidity.
Under such a fair weather it must be comfortable to do outdoor activities,
if only the callous were not there.
Anyway, I cannot do anything about that, so I have only to dream of their
extinction because dreams are cheap.

Push-ups :17 times
Walking :63 minutes
Standing on one foot :10 minutes each
Cigarettes :0
jogging-on-the-spot :20 minutes

Seven years and one hundred and sixty days in a row have passed since I overcame
a bad habit of smoking.
I was able to keep at least 10-time push-ups for the one year and one hundred and
seventh consecutive day including the most recent two days of 17 times of them.

It's sunny in Nagoya today but actually I feel it's humid.
According to weather reports, it will start raining at around midnight here.
Anyway, if it's true that there are no ways to cure the callous, I might have
to think about how to wisely deal with them including how to cleaning house,
considering cost-benefit performance.
Maybe the best way is to ignore them after counterreplying accordingly.

Push-ups :17 times
Walking :47 minutes
Standing on one foot :10 minutes each
Cigarettes :0
jogging-on-the-spot :20 minutes

I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for seven years and one hundred and fifty-nine days in a row.
I was able to inrease the number of push-ups by only one time to 17 times, and
kept over 9-time push-ups for the one year and one hundred and sixth straight day.

After the 4-hour walking, I resumed a short-distance walking from 47 minutes.
And I really hope to do another long-distance walking before this year's
rainy season has come, if I can be well-prepared for it.
Actually, it's a little humid in Nagoya today like one of the days in a rainy
season, and it's slightly cloudy.
Now I'm afraid that this year's rainy season might begin earlier than usual.

Push-ups :15 times
Walking :0 minutes
Standing on one foot :10 minutes each
Cigarettes :0
jogging-on-the-spot :20 minutes

I have been able to do without smoking for seven years and one hundred and fifty-eight days in a row.
I was able to keep more than 9-time push-ups for the one year and one hundred
and fifth successive day including the latest two days of 16 times of them.

After last Friday's 4-hour walking, I resumed 20-minute jogging-on-the-spot.
I think much of the exercise as part of preparation for a long-distance walking
because the exercise is very effective to improve muscular endurance,
especially for the muscles around my knees.
Anyway, I've felt the fatigue in my legs are almost completely gone.
So, I'd like to resume short-distance walking today.

Push-ups :15 times
Walking :a total of 30 minutes
Standing on one foot :10 minutes each
Cigarettes :0
jogging-on-the-spot :0 minutes

I was able to keep no-smoking for seven years and one hundred and fifty-seven days in a row.
I managed to increased the number of push-ups by only one time to 16 times, and
kept greater than 9-time push-ups for the one year and fourth consecutive day.

After the 4-hour walking, I resumed standing-on-one-foot from 10 minutes each.
I hope to resume walking little by little and again I hope to do another long-
distance walking in the near future.
I bought a new pair of shoes yesterday and I noticed that it's very important
to choose shoes for a safe walking.
By the way, I saw a man standing on a parapet of a bridge.
So far I have not heard of anything about that on the Internet or in the newspaper,
so I have no choice but to guess that nothing happened.
