    A bit of a lazy day today as it was on and off raining all day. Managed to get out for a very short walk, but quit early because we were all soaked through ☹️. I ended up getting through the rest of my steps dancing with the kids and giving the house a good tidy. Back to work tomorrow, so fingers crossed I can keep it up.

    Busy day at work today, at 9pm I had only done 1,894 steps 😳… just smashed an hour’s walk on the treadmill whilst watching Netflix to get all my steps in before bed.

    @RoblinB thank you for your words of encouragement. I think I would have given up and sat down to watch TV, but I thought, no, I’m going to do this 😄

    @mizzmagenta You are welcome! 🙂 I love the “smashed” imagery! Well smashed! I also have a very sedentary job and I know how it feels to see that you still need 6000 steps when you would rather go bed!

    @MadisonMolly2017 Weather can make things challenging where I live, too. Did you hit your goal today?

    Goal 3,500 (will increase as I build back up!)

    June 4 3105 (heat wave) but I did do many other leg exercises & PT stretches indoors!
    June 5 1,992 + arm weights & leg PT exercises VERY HOT

    CAME UP WITH A PLAN FOR THE SUMMER:
    I looked for a pool exercise class & couldn’t find one (will look more in future, so I came up with a new plan.

    Walk in the morning when UV is around 1-3.

    Got up, dressed, sunscreen sunglasses hat let’s water & GO!

    So many other people out walking jogging & heavy gardening..❤️

    Walked longer than I expected & more than I did any other day this week! I’m sitting at 3737 steps so I will hit my 5,000 goal today❣️Maybe even higher.

    I wanted to walk further but decided to turn around because of UV but if I get out on my walk earlier I will have the flexibility to lengthen my walk. I used to walk 10K ever day and then > 7K every day + exercises. That seems in reach again!

    I will admit I was really sore when I set out on the walk. Hip ankles even my hands. I thought I might have to turn around. This is new for me & im not happy about it.

    Bumped into an old art friend - chatted two mins (so my miles per minute was actually faster!) and after a bit more walking I realized the discomfort had reduced almost completely

    I can’t believe I’d forgotten that exercise gets easier after you warm up.

    So thank you so much- glad to be in the groove again ❤️🩷💜

    Didn’t quite make my 8,000 steps today, working from 9am to 7.30pm so the wasn’t too much opportunity to get up and walk. Fingers crossed for a better day tomorrow 🤞🏻

    @mizzmagenta You were very close to goal yesterday. I’m sure your body is grateful for that effort nonetheless.

    @MadisonMolly2017 Sounds like a great plan and obviously you made it work for you yesterday. Neat that you ran into a friend. Anything interesting today? I hope you find a pool class.

    Long day at work and then a hospital appointment with my daughter. A lot of sitting around waiting. The kids wanted movie night and didn’t really appreciate me marching on the spot 😂

    Nice little walk planned for tomorrow morning, so hopefully I can make up for the lack of steps over the last two days.

    actually really surprised at the total step counts! Tomorrow it's supposed to rain, which means I have a high chance of having my new favorite trail all to myself hehe. also I get to test my rain hat, which hasn't seen much use yet :) it isn't common to wear fisherman style hats so I feel like people are looking at my hat when I'm out walking, but life is too short to not wear hats!!


    By the way, you're all killing it! <3 good job everyone! :blush:

    We were out of town yesterday and today. Doing laps around the service station when we stopped to fill up didn’t quite get me to 8000 steps either yesterday or today! But I am committed to getting back at it tomorrow.

    Lots of birthday parties this weekend, so some of my steps were dancing steps 💃… can’t let the kids have all the fun 🤩

    Kids are back to school tomorrow, so my steps should be a little better, fingers crossed. Alarm clock set for 5am rain or shine I’m out for an early morning walk.

    Wishing you all good luck for the week ahead.

    In the office today, so parked my car a mile away from work to get some extra steps in and a little 20 minute walk after lunch.

    The 5am start was a washout as the kids thought it was time to get up and then wanted to come with me… the whole neighbourhood would be awake if I took them with me, so it was a very early breakfast instead 🤣
