This is a photo of the steep path ahead of me at the point that I turned around and headed back home. It’s a 15 minute walk to North Mountain. I clambered up 20 minutes and then headed back down and home.
I’m going to use this Mountain as my personal goal while staying here in Phoenix.
What is your next fitness goal?11 -
BTW: There is a lot more Mountain than you can see in the photo above.1

Funny, that .... two days ago I started a 6 part (~1Hr 15 per segment) real-time hike up a mountain in the Austrian Alps, compliments of YouTube ....7

@RangerRickL, that's a beautiful-looking area! I've never hiked anything more complex than mild hills and a short trek up an escarpment near where my mom lives. That mountain looks like it'll give you plenty of progressive goals!
My next goal is to get back within a healthy weight range and then see about training for a 5K. I've ended up with foot/knees problems from running before, so I want to make it as easy on my body as possible while still giving me some good goals to work towards. I'll see how I'm feeling when I get there. (~12lb to go.) In the meantime, I'm working on building up strength and cardio endurance.7 -
Pass #1 for me.
Bad news when I got home from my standing Monday evening commitment .
So didn't do the second 10 minutes of exercise and therefore was 3 calories over the limit.
A very dear friend of my mom's died the day after her 97th birthday ... basically of "old age" ... known me since the day I was brought home from the hospital ... the kind of lady you wish WAS your grandma, instead of your actual in-town-grandma ...
Sorry for your loss. Some people live a lasting marks in our lives. I pray that her sweet memories of will keep you through this period. ((HUGS))2 -

I JUST hit Normal BMI Zone (two weekdays in a row) starting on (Chinese) New Year's Day (Feb 5). So I was "normal by New Years" .... technically ....
Over the course of January, I managed to lower my Body Fat % calculation by 1.5%. I want to keep that trend going for February. To get there, I have to keep making the 10 minute pre-work HIIT a "just how the morning routine works" activity - and keep working on consolidating the after-work 10 minute HIIT into an unthinking "post-work routine action" too.
By the end of February, I want to be into the 138.Xs, well on my way to "Starting Maintenance by end of March" (~6 pounds to go for what will PROBABLY be the mid-point of my 4 or 5 pound maintenance zone.)
OR (if not quite there) MUST be able to point to measurable inches gone / Body Fat % formula giving me progressively lower numbers so that I know SOME transitioning is still happening, without being a slave to numbers on the scale.
The jogging on the mini-trampoline needs to transition to "active rest" and "reward" status, as it is still lots of fun, but far less calorie-burning efficient now that I have shed 42 pounds (since May 2017 ... gone all the way from inside BMI Obese => whole BMI Overweight zone => top edge of BMI Normal). The lighter you are, the fewer calories you burn walking or jogging in place at the same - or even higher - intensity, in the same amount of time ....
On the NSV side, I want to be able to do up my wedding dress before my 31st Anniversary (April 30) and keep right on being able to do it up once a month from that point forward. Only abut 1 inch to go before I can close all the buttons up the back. To get there (and stay there), the Body Fat % has to keep going down .... did I mention making HIIT on my bike a hard-wired part of my day ? 9 -
