ScrAgnx do you have a pedometer? I wear mine when I use the push mower. The only frustrating thing is that it does not show how HARD I work although it does log my minutes and mileage....
I worked so hard yesterday that I had a difficult time today. Did not get a lot of sleep. I think I was exhausted! Anyway a shorter early morning walk with my girls and then another so all in all we got in 4.25 Miles even though it took two walks...

Getting a bit tired of the short, short daylight hours. The sun is setting here by 5 pm now.
And the temperature starts to drop by about 4 pm. Coming back from yesterday's ride ... we FROZE.
Thankfully, it is less than a month before the daylight hours start increasing again. Can't wait!!0 -

In other, more sobering news, I just found out the missing diver from the South Coast (failed to surface, search called off) is from a local club, and may be someone I've met before. Makes you think.0 -
Machka I also hate it when it gets dark at 5p.m. in our winter months as well. Being SPRING now it is getting dark around 9p.m. That will become around 9:30-9:45 p.m a bit later. I remember visiting Alaska in June one year. It was awesome as I watched the Sun going down at MIDNIGHT! lol...I got up around 3a.m too go too the bathroom. Looked out the window. It was only dusky dark. People were riding Bikes up and down the street! lol...I would hate those cold dark winter months though....
yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy for your 112.5 miles.....WAY TOO GO! You just can't STOP now! lol we have SIX more MAY days too go!
Yesterday was a Sunday Spring Fellowship day at Church. I only got in 1.5 walking miles..
Today I took the girls for a 2.25 mile walk. Dropped them off at home and continued another way walking too the Cemetery and back. That gave me another 2.75 miles. 5.0 altogether..
TOTAL THUS FAR MAY 25TH.........118.0 walking miles (my goal is 120)

5/25: C25K Week 4 Day 2: 3.1 Miles
May 2015 Total to Date: 164.0 miles
Walk/Run: 32.2 mi. (Target: 25 mi.)
Cycling: 131.8 mi. (Target: 200 mi)
I have a wrist based activity tracker, so the mower affects it (between the vibration, and less movement due to holding the push bar). I just leave mowing, etc as a unclaimed bonus.0 -
Hiya peeps, the end is nearly nigh!
Spent the long bank holiday weekend gardening, no idea how far I walked, but like ScrAgnX I will consider that an unclaimed bonus. Cycled to and from work today followed by 75 minutes zumba I feel like a real fit chick rather than fat and nearly fifty, it may only last until I start to stiffen up!
Hubby has booked us into our first spinning class tomorrow night, not sure how that's going to go.
May to date - 137.5 miles

Today was only 3.0 Walking miles in-between the storms....
TOTAL THUS FAR May 26th............121 walking miles....(YAYYYYYYYY GOAL MET!) NO I'm not stopping now...0 -
Hey all,
Yeah I'm still here. Just have been traveling a lot and no time to track miles. Been working out, but just not recording. I'll come back in June when I'm around more, although am traveling to Texas, but I'll try to keep better track.0 -

doesn't look like 100 miles should be at all difficult for you given your results so far!! Great job!!
me:
Cycling - 4.75/10 hours (49 miles so far)
Walking - 27.5/50 miles (includes anything above 1 mile showing on my fitbit)
Swim - 30/100 laps
Lindy Hop class - 3/4 times

Had a much less confidence-bashing dance class last night. I don’t feel too bad about holding myself back in class level as I was really concentrating on getting the form right. A big smile at the end of the class.
I'm picking up my new bike (yup, extravagance, but with the cycle to work scheme savings I'd be a fool not to!!) tomorrow so will have a play on that, plus walking with a friend in Pembrokeshire over the weekend. Added to that I’ve got three days on on-site surveys in gardens to do so plenty of scope for getting in some walking miles! Exercise by stealth – that’s how I like it.
Thank you ... I've hit a bit of a lull but hoping to make my goal. You're doing an awesome job!!0 -
5-6 12.84 miles road bike
5-8 1.6 walked around at Ft Harrison State Park
5-9 2.8 hiked a trail

Hey guys!!! Took an extra long weekend. yaaaaawn, stretch.... It was so incredibly lovely that I'm doing again this next weekend.
It is raining, raining, raining down here! Our neighbors to the west in Texas are really getting hit hard. There have been many deaths due to severe and very fast flooding... Truly so heartbreaking.
@Machka9, what a beautiful picture. Thank you so much for sharing!
