    I'm new here and just saw this so I'm starting a bit late and alternating walking with swimming so will only track the walking! I love a good challenge!

    I decided that I need the accountability of checking in daily with my walking progress. I am setting my goal at 31 miles for March. I know I've lost some days in March already, but I'll double up on nice days walking morning and evening.:happy:

    No formal exercise/walk today - just chased around a small, active, boy who is excited to turn 3 tomorrow. Celebration was today. I still got some steps in though. Every little bit counts.

    Yes the P90 and P90X you saw on the infomercial is the same as what you hear people talking about. There is another topic that is discussing the P90 that people are doing. Although I am familiar with both of these, I don't know enough to tell you about the 10 minute one. I have borrowed the DVDs on the P90 and the P90X and tried them. It is a workout but I had some workout routines from a personal trainer that worked me just as hard and I liked doing them better. I have not completed an entire P90 program myself. I have heard good things about it though.

    So glad I signed up to do this yesterday. I did not feel like walking tonight, so I was just going to take my dog out for a quick 5 or 10 minutes and nothing more. But then I remembered this challenge and pushed myself to take him for a 36 minute walk instead. So thanks you guys for motivating me to get out there tonight!

    edit: I always do the ticker wrong on the first try!

    Didn't get any walking in on Friday due to having to wait in for a delivery that didn't come until almost dinner time :mad:

    Got about an hour and a half's worth in yesterday, including C25K and walking to the supermarket and back, and think i'm still on track to reach my goal, and hopefully even top it.

    It's raining today, so I think my exercise is going to be housework!

    FabulousGia, I like how you recorded the date and miles that you walked, and I hope you don't mind that I use the same format, because even with a ticker from tickerfactory.com, it can get confusing, and you can lose track.

    3/1: 2 miles
    3/2: 1.26 miles
    3/3: 1.53 miles
    3/4: 0
    3/5: 2.37
    3/6: 2.80 miles

    Did my 3 miles yesterday for the Animal Defense League. Got caught in a rain storm about half way thru but managed to finish in 53 minutes. Guess my next goal should be to finish in 50 minutes.

    Hey, Patches thank you for the information. It was helpful. I have looked at the P90, P90 X and the 30 day shred and those are to much for me. The 10 minute one looks about my style and alot more workable. After my daily treadmill I have about 15 minutes left and just kind of waste that away so maybe if I do the 10 min thing I wil be putting my 15 minutes to good use. I need to add something to my workout as I have been stuck at my present weight for about 2 weeks now. I will update my ticker later today. I am on my son's computer and it is very old and I am not sure I can figure out how to get the ticker to work.

    You are welcome. I know what you mean about having 10 or 15 minutes left over. I have an assortment of times on all of my exercise DVDs. It helps in planning your day when you can grab a 20 minute workout and still feel accomplished. I just finished my step video and plan on getting some walking in later today to add to my steps.

    So I have a lot of catching up to do, it has been a really busy week (i know that it's not a good excuse) but I have managed to get my workouts in and that has been my focus last week. I am determined to catch up this week...beginning today! Thanks girls for keeping me accountable!
