Hiking Day Meets Feasting Day... my training diary entry from September 19 2026

_{(The more challenging part of yesterday's hike began here. The sign reads: "End of improved path – continue at your own risk.")}

Hi Actifitters,

yesterday had two highlights. For one, I went hiking with friends in Farchant—a place near Garmisch-Partenkirchen—and for another, my aunt and uncle came to visit in the evening.

The weather was fantastic, and we made the most of it. The route we chose took us past numerous small waterfalls and rapids that kept the air cool. Afterward, we headed up the Hoher Fricken, though we only hiked the first third of the way to the summit. Yesterday was all about having a good time outdoors, not about setting new personal bests. But even this pared-down route was challenging. There were many unprotected sections with steep drop-offs, so we were well-advised to place every step carefully. All in all, it was a very successful outing.

Here are a few figures regarding the hike:

Duration - 2:32:53
Average pace - 25:50 / km
Step count - 8858
Total elevation gain - 399 m
Total descent - 384 m
Min altitude - 677 m
Max altitude - 1052 m

All in all, I clocked just under 17,000 steps yesterday. However, Actifit stopped counting after 8,241 steps. I’m seriously considering uninstalling the app and continuing my fitness log without Actifit.

Mission 80 (Day 83 = 87.2 / Goal = 80.0 kg / Initial weight = 90.0 / Total loss = 2.8 kg)

After we had made our way back down, we went to an Italian restaurant in Farchant for lunch. We had a couple of beers and a delicious pizza. That—combined with a sandwich during the hike and a large protein shake earlier in the morning—brought my calorie intake very close to my daily requirement.

However, my aunt and uncle did arrive in the evening. So, that’s when the feasting really got underway. My mother cooked a great deal of delicious food, and I ate a lot, too. That explains the significant weight gain compared to yesterday.

I really ought to do a lot of exercise today to offset yesterday's cheat day. However, I can't seem to find any motivation at the moment. I think I'll postpone the planned negative pull-up workout until tomorrow. Still, I can't reconcile skipping exercise entirely with my conscience, so I'm going to force myself to get on the bike in a moment. We'll see how long I can hold out against my inner slacker.
