    @themedalist , that's great. I certainly haven't met my goal, so I'm willing to walk a few more days to get to Florence.

    Hello, I have a whopping 7 miles to contribute, from Oct 27 to today.

    Thanks to this challenge, I actually got my Fitbit out, charged, app downloaded onto thIs phone and synced to MFP - so that was incredibly valuable and got me moving in the direction of daily activity! 🙃

    I do hope we make it to Florence - I enjoyed our little side trip 😁

    @Ladybug8882021, it’s not the mileage that’s important. We set a goal and we worked at it together. THAT’S what’s important. You moved us closer to Florence…thank you for that!

    We will get to Florence! And I am thrilled that our Walktober walk helped you build the habit of daily activity!

    I should have added to please post your miles no later than Sunday morning. It takes me a while to create a new map and if I don’t do it tomorrow afternoon it will have to wait till next weekend.

    Thanks!

    Yes, we have reached our Walktober destination of Florence, Italy! We have walked almost 1000 miles over the last 5 weeks (and well over 1000 miles if we count last week’s Bologna expedition!) and we are now in beautiful Florence!

    This was truly a team effort! Thank you to @jamcnewman @Ladybug8882021 @MadisonMolly2017 @Mrs_Hoffer @PackerFanInGB @TerriRichardson112 @texasgardnr and @77tes who all added miles to our Walktober effort, moving us closer and closer to Florence.

    We needed 300 miles in order to get to our destination: in this last stretch we walked 305.3 miles. Every single one of us was vital to our success!

    Now that we are in Florence, there is so much to do and see! Here are some interesting facts about Florence:

    @themedalist thanks so much. I’ve always wanted to see the Gates of Paradise in the Baptistry at San Giovanni in Florence
