    Catching up the weekend:
    Saturday was spent hiking around Rib Mountain State Park. A perfect fall day but I got a late start, so I ended after dark. I hiked about 8.5 miles but wanted more. I had worn my hiking shoes instead of boots and the leaves on the ground were all wet from the previous nights rain, so my feet got soaked and once night arrived, it went from a pleasant enough 50° to a downright chilly 35°.

    Sunday, I watched some football and followed along as my fantasy team went down in flames. So, instead of watching the Sunday night game, I got out and walked 10.3 miles along the trail. The moon was bright enough that I didn't need any kind of illumination.

    Walked five miles tonight in 1 hour 15 mins. Beautiful full moon but still needed my headlamp. A good end to a busy day.

    Sounds like gorgeous walking & hiking done by you both! I have a head cold & am out of commission. 5000+ steps today is all I had in me.

    Thanks for your compliment as well @scolaris. I hope you feel better soon!
    @BruceHedtke awesome job on your hiking!
    @ihj385 I used to walk in the evening with a friend of mine...I miss those days...we actually used to walk in the morning, in the winter...we were hard core lol
    @jumpybeans Nice work!

    October 26...I did my 3 km today. I wanted to do more but the area is kind of iffy...we live near trans Canada hi way so I am very nervous to be out walking by myself, even with my dogs! I might get my daughter to go with me after school for another short walk and we will take the big chocolate guy (my black lab went this morning)

    20051 steps today; 8.6 mi. Subbed in a medically fragile class so i got out with a few kids in wheelchairs for some walks around campus. Walked a pretty creek path near that school site after school was dismissed. Even fit in a TRX class on top of the walking. Boy, that's a work out!

    Good walking everyone. Walked four and a half miles yesterday. Didn't have much time this morning but still got in two and a half before work. I am loving it and so is my dog!

    I had gone into work early yesterday, so that meant getting done earlier this morning and I really wanted to get my workout in right after work. But, it was raining and the forecast said it was supposed to stop by mid-afternoon, so I just planned on getting up earlier. Which I did. There was a chance of rain (like 30%) for tonight and I got six miles down the trail and then the chance of rain became 100%. A wind-driven, cold, soaking October rain the entire way back, so I was drenched. But, I got the 12 miles in that I was shooting for today. I made sure to treat myself to some ice cream when I got back, so all was not lost :)

    Good job! Ice cream is a great motivator for me too!
