    Good evening everyone, I can't believe how everybody's miles are adding up and it's only the 12th.

    Another 75 minutes of Zumba this evening, I am sure I have a pedometer somewhere, I need to find it and check out how many steps I put in doing a zumba class

    May to date - 65.3 miles and 210 minutes zumba

    02 Sat - 37.43 km cycling (120 min)
    03 Sun - 31.04 km cycling (100 min)

    So ... my goal is to move 500 km or as close to it as possible again. :) Little bit more challenging now as this is a busy month with work and university ... plus it is winter, and darkness falls on my way home from work now.

    04 Mon - 4 km walking (50 min) ... all utility walking, commuting to work, walking between work and uni

    Plus I did a 35 min stair climbing workout in the evening. My yard is full of little sets of stairs. The longest one is 7 steps so I mainly focused on that one, up and down, up and down, but I also jogged between the others and did them too for some variety. In total, just over 1000 stairs climbed.
    Plus 10 min upper body weights workout.

    05 Tues - 4.8 km walking (60 min) ... again, all utility walking.


    Sub-total:
    Walking: 12 km (7.4 miles)
    Cycling: 68.47 km (42.5 miles)
    Time: 365 min (6 h 5 min) walking & cycling + 45 min stairs & weights

    Hmmm ... I haven't logged in here in a little while ...

    06 Wed - 2.8 km walking (35 min)
    07 Thurs - 5.3 km walking (65 min)
    08 Fri - 3.8 km walking (45 min)

    09 Sat - 27.5 km cycling (85 min) ... relatively flat ride on the Cycleway
    10 Sun - 41.03 km cycling (120 min) ... hilly ride up behind our place 764 metres of climbing.

    Sub-total:
    Walking: 23.9 km (14.8 miles)
    Cycling: 137 km (85.1 miles)
    Time: 715 min (11 h 55 min) walking & cycling + 45 min stairs & weights

    11 Mon - 5.7 km walking (70 min)

We had a few low areas in our yard so we are hauling dirt and trying too level out. Today I walked the girls, raked up leaves from around plants , Got husband up for breakfast and shoveled and leveled . Prepared lunch, washed up the dishes, Rested for 30 minutes, went out and shoveled and leveled more dirt...lol..... Yard work may not produce FAST steps but trust me I WORK HARD! I am one tired puppy this evening....YES Warm weather keeps me BUSY.. <3 .....You know i gotta make up for the two months I was mostly DOWN with my neck and shoulder...lol

    thank you and agreed!!! I'm going to use it to make myself work harder and push more!! (although am aching a fair bit today, scaffolding is heavy and not something I regularly shift being fairly office-bound!)

    Great results so far peoples, nearly halfway through May and some of us seem to be nearing a 100 mile target!!
