HAPPY NEW YEAR 2017!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

I looked back. I've been doing these fitness walking challenges since Oct 2013. Before that I joined for awhile when someone asked me too start them..

SOOOOOOOOOOOO you guys asked for it so here we go!

YOU choose your exercise program. YOU decide how many steps or miles. YOU log in daily or weekly or whenever you get a chance as long as we can see what you're doing and can cheer you on....

I still want too make my PERSONAL WALKING GOAL at least 100 Miles. We live in the mountains and it can get pretty nasty up here. I am still having problems with the exercise bike but will try too do what I can until hubby can repair that....

get read.....set.....goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo :)

    I'm in...I'm bumping up my goal to a total of 85 miles for the month. Not going to break it down by exercise per se for 2017, but be assured it will include walking, Stand Up Paddleboarding (we have a Manatee Paddle later today), and various machines (rowing, elliptical, glider) when I can't get outside. I have another challenge to do 1000 miles in 2017 and that comes out to a little over 80 miles / month, ergo my new monthly goal.

    I'm in! Due to a stroke in 2006 I can no longer drive, so I HAVE to walk anyways (to get groceries, etc), but my goal by Saint Valentine's week is to do one 10Km and two 5Kms each week, plus the 0.6-1.2Km one-way to get to the bus/trolley in order to arrive at my destination to do those long walks), plus brisk 1Km on the weekend just for some extra air. Luckily I'm in San Diego so the weather is nice most days of the year, though this winter it's bewen uncharacteristically rainy. But I'm taking bus and/or trolley to beaches, killer stairways and hills, and beaches to do my walks. I'm hoping to join Audible and start "reading" books on my walks.

    I'm building up gradually to my weekly goal of ~26Km total. So this week's minimum will just be 7.6Km total.

    Starting weight Jan 1 is 259.0 pounds (at 6'1"). End goal is ~185-192, but with added muscle. (I'm starting bodyweight exercises this week as well.)
