    Curves was closed today so I took a long walk with my husband and did a HASFit video Tabata workout.

    @PackerFanInGB, I also really liked your "Work-in-a-Walk Wednesday!" 👍

    @77tes, Awesome variety of Monday workouts!

    My catch up post for Move it Monday:

    May 13: 45 minutes Gazelle

    May 20: Walking during my errands

    May 28: I made Memorial Day a rest day. I substituted Tuesday: 3 Walk Blasters and some gardening.

    My schedule has changed, and since I work on Monday morning, I can't do my usual workout with my sister. We'll have to shift that to Wednesday. However, I got in 36 minutes of brisk walking around my hilly campus.

    @prgirl39mfp , good going.

    The heat has set in, and so the struggle to get in the exercise on workdays begins. Today, I did a quick workout (about10 minutes) of calisthenics before work. I was also able to get in about 30 minutes of walking both out in the blazing sun and inside an empty office with AC.

    Nice work, everyone! I did my hill yesterday and should get out there before it rains today.

    Late to the game, but I DID finally move on a Monday this week. LOL! So of course, I have to journal it! I took a walk Monday afternoon with a coworker. We just walked the parking lot to get some fresh air. Tuesday, the same coworker and I took a double laps around the parking lots, and yesterday I went rounding at clinics in neighboring counties and in our city helping the doctors and nurses optimize their Epic screens (electronic patient charting software) and was on my feet all day except for the drives in between so I went over on my step goal. I have a good streak going this week and hoping to continue it today and Friday. Hoping everyone is having a great week!

    @jan110144 Just like @77tes says, I am also jealous of the riding! :)

    @nebslp, that is wonderful that you have hills nearby! I love hills and stairs, but none nearby 😢.

    @PackerFanInGB, an awesome Move it Monday with your coworker. And a great week 😎 !

    Today, I got to work early and did a quick workout (about10 minutes) of calisthenics and 20 minutes of chair yoga before I opened the lab for work. I also hope to get in some walking around campus since the weather is mild and lovely today.

    Fairly typical say. Rode 2 horses in the morning. Spent an hour and a half in the back yard in my continuing effort to tame the mess.

    June 17: an easy 30 plus minutes of walking around. I needed a semi-rest day today.

    Yesterday I wasn't able to get out and walk during work breaks or at home. But today was Take it Back, Tuesday and I got 2 miles in. I know that's not a lot by most people's standards, but it's big for me! :)

    Indeed those two Take it Back, Tuesday miles rocked a lot, @PackerFanInGB. Well done!!!

    Awesome workouts! @77tes and @jan110144!

    Yesterday, on Move it Monday, I was out driving from clinic to clinic to a few different surrounding counties and then rounded on nurses and providers at each clinic helping them optimize their screens and showing them more efficient ways to document on patient's charts in Epic, our Electronic Medical Record. I don't have a good measurement of how long or how many steps, but my feet were swollen and sore when I got home, so that should be worth something, right? :wink:

    On Monday, I did get in a couple short walks, totaling almost half an hour around my hilly campus and a 20 minute yoga workout.

    July 1st MONDAY!!! Woke up, brushed teeth washed face and did 5 Boosted Miles with Leslie Sansone. As Sargent Carter in Gomer Pyle says MOVE IT! MOVE IT! MOVE IT! now it is Bible study time. Happy Move it Monday everyone.

    @knjstolt Nice!!!!

    I plan to walk tonight when I get home. It's hot and humid today and I don't want to do it while at work because it would bring out the sweat stench... HAHA! TMI???

    I have a feeling I will need it tonight. Had a very "family drama" weekend and it's continued into today. I plan to work off some frustration by walking my buddy, Maddie.

    Happy Monday everyone!
