    Must have been the buck and doe party...right,,,,lol B) Hope you had fun!
    Glad for this challenge because I was ready to push a bit harder at the gym....my issue is always with time. I just can't be one of these people who can be at the gym for hours....but I am striving for 2 miles when I do go ....and I just downloaded a pedometer (that is pretty accurate) onto my phone. I read 2000 steps is one mile....so this is where my miles could start adding up because I do sooo many errands and running around. (I just don't consider it excersise).

    Today week 8 on program!!! Yay!!! It's reward time!!! Getting a well deserved pedi this weekend coming up! Guess I need another reward...hmmm...have to give that one some thought.

    I did 30 min of upper arm strength training then onto my machine and I would NOT get off that machine until I hit 2 miles...haha......so, as I said...this challenge is pushing me.....but man, I wish I would start seeing that darn scale move more....funny tho, all weekend I was pulling up my yoga pants which I don't remember having to do that a few months ago...hmmm...

    2 miles so far today, but I will post tonight to see what new pedometer says...

    6 miles total so far
    494 to go!

    Day 2: 4.9 Miles - 84 mins
    Total: 4.9/500 90 Day Miles Walked

    This was a walk with Loxley in the morning and a solo walk later in the day.

    ...

    The last couple months (March and April) I was a part of a challenge thread on this site and... a lot of people do in fact count every step they take throughout the day as part of the challenge. My sister also agrees with that method where I personally only log exercise miles for the challenge... I don't think there is really a right or wrong answer. :)

    I'm glad you're feeling the extra push and enjoy your pedi this weekend.

    Day 6: Nothing - Took the day off but... I regret it now
    Day 7: Nothing - Stained All Morning then I helped move furniture for my sister in the afternoon (Again... A good workout but no miles to log)
    Day 8: Sick (Whole family had it... was not a good time)
    Day 9: Still Sick

    ...

    Yikes... Sorry for not logging for so long. Things have not been going as smooth as I had hoped. I hope things are going well Michelle.

    I'm staining again today and tomorrow but I'm hoping to still get some miles logged with Loxley during that time.

    Have a great day. :)

    I haven't exercised for a long time. It's very hard for me to get motivated. But, I'm motivated now! I'm going to start with a simple yoga Sun Salutation each morning. Ready go!
