    Not all who wander are lost. Count me in as one of the Fellowship.

    May I join in? I'm normally just a lurker on MFP but this is fun enough to get me out of lurkdom :-)

    I'm up for this. I do a lot of walking but don't log it all the time. Does this include just recreational and exercise walking or does walking at work count as well?

    I have a pedometer and log my total distance for the day.

    @NicolaMichelle93 and @cpanus how do you get in so much distance? It's been two days are you're at 11.14 and 17.58 already.

    I've just started using a pedometer and am looking for ways to up my distance, which is currently mostly coming from walking for 45-50 minutes at lunch. I know about parking far away from a destination, but I work from home and often don't go anywhere other than out for my walk. Maybe I'll take laps around the house periodically, lol.

    I'd say intentional walking miles/ steps although if you track steps and such throughout the day (such as at work) you could include those too :) It's completely up to you what you include and to your goals. Any sort of walking/ running is game.
    Added you to the spreadsheet and a group invite is on the way!

    I did an 8 mile Trail Run and a 3 mile walk the following day. May go out later too for a wander :P I also always try and walk instead of getting the bus when I can. But not when it's raining. Bleh to English weather!

    I'd like to join you. I love LOTR!

    Added my name to the spreadsheet. Do you just do a running total yourself?

    Yep. Every mile you complete, just update it next to your name on the spreadsheet :)

    Thanks! I ask because I usually walk two or three miles a day at work. I think maybe I'll do like exercise calories and add all intentional walking and maybe half of work walking.
