    Hi all,

    I'm a stay at home mum to a 2 year old and a 10 month old. Almost all my walking involves pushing 25+kg of toddler+baby+paraphernalia in the double pram! I aim to average 10k steps a day, measured on the pacer app. My average is 9700 so I'm pretty close. I just joined a gym with a crèche today, so looking forward to getting back into some other forms of exercise too!

    Would love to have some more mfp mum friends, so feel free to add me :smile:

    Today: up to 8,896 and still have to walk to the shops for a few dinner ingredients once the baby wakes up.

    Not my day... Did 7,473. But don't feel so bad since I did almost an hour of HIIT and it was intense! :)

    Since I was doing HIIT this evening I decided that 5,200 steps was good enough for today. I'll be back doing 10,000 or more tomorrow, though.

    Thanks. Pretty good for an old lady who will be 68 in 9 days. I just have to watch that my knees don't start to bother me.

    Walking is very good exercise due to its low impact factor, so you should do well with walking. Hope you have a nice B-Day! :)

    I work in a large Emergency Room where I'm on my feet for most of my shift. I walked 6.2 miles total at work today.

    You can tell when it's nice outside...the yard looks nice, and the garage is clean...but step into the house and wham! Time to tornado tidy before breakfast. Have a fantastic Sunday!
