    Hi all. I've decided I am going to join your challenge.
    I am 66, retired, and have not been as active as I should. I have a couple of Leslie's DVD's, and I'm trying to get out walking, and slowly build up my stamina, and therefore my distance. It seems that no matter which direction I walk, coming home is up hill, so it's a good workout for me. So far I only do 1 mile (or less)- but for now my main goal is to just do something every day, and then increase the length as time goes on, maybe a bit more each week.
    So my goal for the rest of March is 20 miles - 1 mile (at least) for the remaining 20 days. I think I need a challenge to stay consistent.

    Thank you all for being here, and you are all so inspiring!

    Oh gee, I forgot to add, today I did do 1.1 miles, walking outside. The heavy snow we had last week has finally melted. 3 days ago the yards had a foot of snow, today the snow is gone, crocuses are starting to bloom, and the tulip and daffodil leaves are about 3" high. Its a great time to start a walking plan.

    March Goal-3.5 miles/day or 108.5 for the month

    3/1-Vivofit tracked 3.6 miles=3.6 total miles
    3/2-Vivofit tracked 1.5 miles=5.1 total miles
    3/3-Vivofit tracked 4.2 miles=9.3 total miles
    3/4-WAH-Burn Body Fat & Sculpt Your Arms-3 miles=12.3 total miles
    3/4-Vivofit tracked 1.2 miles=13.5 total miles
    3/5-Vivofit tracked 1.9 miles=15.4 total miles
    3/6-Vivofit tracked 1.1 miles=16.5 total miles
    3/7-Vivofit tracked 1.4 miles=17.9 total miles
    3/8-Vivofit tracked 2.3 miles=20.2 total miles
    3/9-Vivofit tracked 2.3 miles=22.5 total miles
    3/10-Vivofit tracked 2.0 miles=25.5 total miles

    I am so far behind that there may be no catching up this month. We have been on spring break, so I should be miles ahead for the month! However, I have been working on the reaccreditation of our Early Childhood Education Program and it looks like they will earn reaccreditation so it was all worth it. We want the best education and educators possible for Flint children considering what they have been through in the last 2 years. :+1: A couple of more weeks of data crunching and making graphs, charts etc is the least I can do and we should be home free. Of course I still have to prep, teach and grade my own classes as well! :laugh: Do you know what all this sitting is doing to by behind! :noway: Meh there is always tomorrow! :smile:

    Walk Strong Everyone! :bigsmile:

    Flowers blooming!! Well that is a really good reason to be out walking, I think it will be a least a month yet before we see any of that here in North West Saskatchewan

    Goal March 11-31: 20 miles

    Today: 1.2 miles.
    Walked up to the nearby mall, and around, and later to the corner store. Gorgeous day, only needed a light jacket. But by the time I got home, my toes were hurting - is rain in our forecast?

    Total so far: 2.3 miles

    Goal March 11-31: 20 miles

    Today: 2 miles, using Leslie's Walk to the Hits Party Songs.

    A friend and I are going to a spring bulb show tomorrow, then coming back here for supper, so I don't know how much walking time I'll have, so I did a mile ahead.
    (This is only the 2nd time I have done the 2 miles.)

    Total so far: 4.3 miles

    I did 2 miles Leslie miles off of You Tube this evening. Obviously it was an older video and it was kind of fun to see the clothing and hairstyles of that year.
