    Happy New Year! I'm back to a new, repeated, beginning. My goal will be to work out 30 minutes per day. In addition to riding my bike at least 5 miles a day.

    Saturday 2 January -- 52.06 km with 613 metres of climbing. Plus wind. Plus ... surprisingly chilly. My feet were quite cold when I got in.

    Plus 0.6 km walk to get shortbread cookie making supplies.


    Sunday 3 January -- 32.8 km!! And that brings 8 days in a row of cycling to an end.

    I was kind of hoping to do a flat route, and the first 20 km wasn't too bad, but then it got hilly. Oh well, I'm starting to get used to that. :grin:

    Plus 1 km walk.

    Totals:
    Jan Cycling Outside: 123.26 km (380 min)
    Jan Cycling Inside: 0 min

    it's definitely a good start!!! best way to exercise in my book is things that are fun, and don't get boring - I was amazed by a guy clocking up over an hour on the elliptical the other day - no way could I do that, but dancing for a couple of hours? No problem.

    Hey, Happy January 2016, guys!! Good to see our old friends here and welcome to all the new ones. :smiley:

    My fitbit bit the dust a couple weeks ago so no more counting steps for me. Grrr, because I really enjoyed that little bugger. Ok, I'm over it. HA!

    All new goal for me since the step-counting is now out. Intentionally walking 2 miles a day (as an exercise, not strolling) is my new daily goal. And so far so good!

    Keep it up, Movers!

    I had too improvise a few months when my pedometer bit the dust! I was lucky though as I knew my routes in miles. My new pedometer I dont like. I am not sure it is accurate on calories and sometimes it gives me the miles I know and sometimes it's a bit off...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.....I will have too go by that though when we travel as I will not know THOSE routes....

    January 2nd....2.5 Walking Miles...
    January 3rd.....1.0 Walking Miles....(it was just too darned cold and windy!)
    January 4th......1.5 Walking Miles....(same as above! grrrrrrrrrr)

    TOTAL as of January 4th.....6.5 Walking Miles....

    I want to join. My name is Barry. I want to work out 6 days a week, mainly biking, running and last weights. I don't really like weights but do it on and off.

    Count me in! For now I will go with 30+ min. a day of whatever form of exercise, whether walk or jog, or gym, etc. Optimistic about the new year and utilizing the MFP forums for the first time. Feel free to add me and keep me honest! :) Good luck everyone
