Off For a Walk

[billroper]

In an effort to convince myself to do more walking, I picked up playing Ingress from tollers last Saturday. Since then, I've walked 10 kilometers, which is about 10 kilometers more than I would have done otherwise. :)

This afternoon, I went on a walk / bike ride with Julie (I walked, she rode) which took us over to the park where there are a number of portals near the playground. Much mayhem was committed by both of us...

Good job, agent! :-D

I'm at 386km in-game, plus whatever I've walked while playing when I forgot and turned the scanner off. Oops.

I just downloaded it based on talking with mneme.

So... Which team are you on?

I would be a smurf.

But I am getting larger. :)

Definitely blue (Resistance, often called 'Smurfs' by the other team - that's OK because we call them 'Frogs' or 'Toads'). Remember, a moment of enlightenment, a lifetime of regret!

I just checked the scanner app - I've walked 964 kilometers playing the game so far.

Smurf here too.... it's worth noting that the distance in game isn't what you've actually walked, just the straight line between portals that you interact with.

Aha! That explains a great deal!

[billroper]

That's quite a distance!

Good for you! Glad you're enjoying the game.

It's been a good thing. I really needed to go punch something last night and some froggie portals were a good choice. :)
