Toot Toot!!! I walked 6 miles this morning and did a personal best. My fastest mile 14:25, my average mile was 15:10 and my fastest mile was 4.6. I started adding a banana before my walks the past two days and what a difference it has made. Who knew?
If I wasn't so sore I would have kept walking. Have a great day every one.

Hey, that's an excellent idea. I bring a fruit (apple, banana, nectarine,...) or some vegs (cherry tomatoes, red peppers, ..) with me. It's very comforting to have it in my pocket while I walk. After a mile or so i take out my fruit (or whatever I brought with me) and eat it very slowly, tasting every bit of it. It tastes better when you're outside and have time to eat slowly.
Today I felt urge to go to kitchen and eat something (in my case a banana). I said to myself, "OK go fetch it, put it in your pocket and go for a walk. While you're walking you are free to eat it". I did that and 2 miles later I was home :happy:0 -
An additional 6 miles this morning. I got to walk in the rain again and it felt sooooooooooooooo good! Walk strong Walkers and smile!

I think need to change from miles walked to minutes walked, that will be much easier for me to keep up with...I love to walk with/on my Wii and have no idea the actual miles I walk, so instead of "guess-ta-mating" I'm changing to minutes....
So since almost half the month is already over, (I have been walking) I'm gong to change to : 500 minutes for the rest of the month
:flowerforyou:
Start: 500 minutes
Walked: 180 minutes
Balance: 320 minutes
Balance: 320 minutes

I know the fitness world, including Leslie on several of her videos, advocate working out in the morning. But, once I go back to teaching in Sept, I also prefer walking at night before bed. It seems to get rid of all the stress of the day and then a nice hot shower finishes it all off so I sleep really well. I know part of it is that I have a mentally challenging job and going "brain dead" before bed and just walking is very calming. If you have stressful days, Michelle, walking at night is great! Enjoy it!

Almost there folks. I hope we are all on target.
How about for next month, whatever you did this month adding 10%. That way we are always moving forward. Anyone up for that?0
