January Goal: Beat January 2018-90.5 miles
Oh my gosh!!! There are so many new walkers! How exciting to have 8 pages of inspiration to read! You are all off to a great start!!!! I am way behind as I have been putting away Christmas decorations and getting my classes up and running.
I was kind of down at the end of December. My family went back to Netherlands and I gained 1.2 pounds last year :grumble: That was the bad news I discovered as I was closing out my 2018 files. But the exciting news was that I walked 155 miles in December-a record high for me!!! When I added them to the rest of the year, I found that I walked more miles in 2018 than I have since I started this challenge in 2014!!!! 1,218 total miles in 2018 beat 2015's 1212 total miles!!! Those 6 miles have totally fired me up and I have decided that my monthly goal this year will be to exceed 2018's miles for each month! Beating December's 155 miles will be tough, but I have a whole year to "train." :laugh: I am going to get on the Move it Mondays Challenge also to make sure I am ready!!!! Hopefully, this will scare that 1.2 pounds to death and they will head for the hills!!!!
1/1-Vivofit tracked 5.1 miles=5.1 miles total
1/2-Vivofit tracked 3.7 miles=8.8 miles total
1/3-Vivofit tracked 3,7 miles=12.5 miles total

1/5-Vivofit tracked 4.3 miles=19.8 miles total
1/6-Vivofit tracked 3.9 miles=23.7 miles total
1/7-Vivofit tracked 1.5 miles=25.2 miles total

1/10-Vivofit tracked 2.8 miles=35 miles total
1/11-Vivofit tracked 2.1 miles=37.1 miles total
1/12-Vivofit tracked 2.8 miles=39.9 miles total

1/16-Vivofit tracked 1.8 miles=52.2 miles total
1/17-Vivofit tracked 3.7 miles=55.9 miles total
Thanks for the head's up in the Move it Monday Challenge texasgardnr! I am ON IT!!!
I loved the photo of your walk in the woods Pinky. We had to "find snow" for my granddaughter and that meant a trip to Traverse City since we only had a dusting of snow here :explode: Shoveling it not great, but it is better than no snow at all.
WOW AnnofB-you are seriously into your strength training this month! Good for you and I KNOW I need to get on that as well, but *sigh* I just do not like it as much as aerobics.
Happy New Year and Walk Strong Everyone! :bigsmile:3 -
zichab,
155 miles in one month! That is amazing. And then to find that your total for the year turned out to be a record breaker too. No wonder you are on fire! Great work!
I admit Brenda, I do not like strength training. Aerobic workouts are just way more fun. This month continues to be a challenge for me, but I'm not backing down. I am learning to grin and bear it. After a strength session, I always get in at least one mile with Leslie or Jessica or somebody, just to celebrate that it's over, ha-ha.
Have a great weekend!2 -
Jan 17: 4 mile walk
Jan 18: 3 Miles Walk to the Hits: Radio Remixes
75 out of 1003 -
My goal was is 10000 steps per day so the first week I walked 73000 and the second week I walked 83000! But this week I think I overdid last week and my arthritic knee is throbbing so I am only doing 7000-8000 steps per day. I'm slowly working back up to the 10000.5

Fantastic job! And yes, we have to listen to our bodies and not overdo it. Hope your knee is feeling better soon.2 -

@AnnofB what is the website you use for your strength workout? I would like to find one I can do. I have a metal knee so some of them I am not able to do, and my 60 year old body is just getting back into shape..... LOL. Great job with following the Strength up with a mile walk.
@lolomama_ Great job on the steps but ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR BODY! That is what my daddy always tells me..... Keep up the great walking.
@VeggieGirlforLife are the radio remix miles on YouTube? I only have one of Leslie's DVD's and have just been doing the ones on YouTube..... If they are on there will you please post the link. Great job in keeping up the active walks.
@zichab Great walking with the fitbit.... I have a Withings and it doesn't track the miles just the steps.2 -
@knjstolt No, sorry, that workout isn't on YouTube. I bought the DVD. I checked out all of her Walk to the Hits DVDs from my library and I liked the Radio Remixes the best, so I decided to buy it. I have purchased several of her DVDs used from a local resale shop, too. I don't know if you have any place like that around you, but I got the idea from someone else on here, so I thought I'd mention it to you.
I saw you asked someone else, but for strength have you tried HasFit on YouTube? They have a beginner playlist and they always show modifications.2 -
Hi knjstolt, All of my workouts are on DVD's. Though I have used HasFit.com before. I got most of DVD's from Amazon, but Wal-Mart and Target carry some too. And VeggieGirl mentioned a great source being resale shops.
The DVD's I am using now are "The Yogini Workout" by Ellen Barrett, Strength and Stamina by Kelly Coffee-Meyer and Cathe Freidrich's "Basic Step and Body Fusion". I don't do the Step portion any more, but this DVD has a beginner Strength workout too that I have been using for a while.
Ellen Barretts workouts are on youtube. I looked at Cathe and Kelly's stuff and you can get an idea from what's on youtube, but there full workouts are not there.
Great job on your workouts!1 -
@VeggieGirlforLife Thank You I will check out local resale shops... I am in Lufkin S.E. TX so not a big town. But it never hurts too look. @AnnofB also told me about HasFit so will check that out too.
@AnnofB Thanks for the info. I have the names written down and will look at local resale shops as @VeggieGirlforLife suggested.
I appreciate both of you helping with the information.0 -
