*!December 2015 Walking Challenge!*
This is continued from previous Monthly Walking Challenges. Each month has its own thread.
*** Anyone can join in at any time. The more the merrier, let’s keep each other motivated****
Walking seems like the easiest way to start getting exercise, and even if you can't track distance (or don't want to), tracking time is good too...go for a 10 min walk after dinner, or up it to 30 minutes, you'll be amazed at the end of the month how much more exercise your getting in.
Come back here and just post how far you walked, even if it was to the mailbox on a given day. The important thing is that you are moving and getting out (or if you walked in place in your basement to a video). Sometimes we need a little encouragement in order to do things in life.
Check in everyday with how far you walked or how long, this is just to motivate us to get in at least some exercise every day, and keep an eye on each other.
RULES:
*no bullying
*no pressure
*just walking and dancing, stepping, prancing (that time of year ya know), anything to get you moving.
*just lace up the shoes and take a walk!
Yes, we have Lab mind control here...

I know!!!! The cold and rain has sent me inside. I have walked twice now in the basement to Leslie Sansone. Not bad at all really, feel like I am sweating to the oldies here!
If anyone is interested, there are some really neat videos here:

I was skeptical because I wanted to be outside, but I have to get my walk to.0 -

I just love the pictures you post! My neighbor's lab was my walking partner, but he has taken him to a friend's house, so the Alpha must walk alone. I could walk another neighbor's dog (a German Shepherd, but he needs a lot of work).
This was my partner for a long time:

Awe what a cute lab! As far as walking he German Shepard goes...Jessie the chocolate one is like that. With all the ice he likes to pull...I'm looking into getting him a face/nose halter and hopefully it will help. I know time will help as well as he just turned one but I seriously don't know what I would do without my dogs. A lot of time I don't feel like walking but they are he ones barking/talking to me letting me know that it's nice out!0 -
