    Warning. Christmas time is coming and all those cookies and chocolate boxes are there to be avoided. Don't tell me I'm too late with the warning.

    It looks like maybe you were too late with your warning, Alex! Some of our regular walkers seem to be partying more than they are walking! :laugh: However, January is coming, along with the "scale of reckoning!" :noway: Of course, come Thursday, I'll be in Europe with you, albeit a bit further south, and probably not logging my walks either! It is that time of year. :wink:

    Up to 9/60 miles. I may not make my miles goal but I'm half way on my minutes of exercise goal. Woohoo!! My pace is slow and I will be increasing distance slowly. My main walking partner is my 11 year old and she twisted and sprained her ankle a week ago she can walk on it and got the okay to keep walking but isn't able to make it as far because it starts bothering her. I have to teach her sprain PT exercises. Will be interesting.

    Impressive stats, everyone!

    I have a question for those of you that use heart rate monitors. I used the Polar FT4 today while I did Leslie Sansone's 5 Miles Fat Burning Walk and it says I burned 549 calories! That seems a bit high. But I know her site says you can burn about 100 calories per mile. I just can't believe it. Has anyone else used a heart rate monitor with her workouts? How many calories did you burn?

    I don't own a heart rate monitor but I have always heard Polar are the best. When you are doing less strenuous workouts, does the number seem appropriate? It may very well be right on target. That's a great burn. :D

    Just checking in..... the weather has been so nice and we don't have very much snow here in Saskatchewan so I have walked outside whenever I can. We are also renovating our basement so my TV & DVD player and Leslie DVD's are under plastic....

    December goal - 100 miles
    - so far 56.8 miles...
