    I'm in again....

    I did 6 miles today and have already logged the other 14 since Aug 1st.

    great! 6 miles is amazing, I'm sore and tired after 5... but I'm going to try to work my way up to do more. Even if I have to do some in the morning and some in the afternoon

    You can update your miles on ticket factory website. Copy and paste the link in your signature into your browser (I think just the www.ticketfactory.com/ there are some letters/numbers combo after that also but the rest is not needed.). Hope that helps ---

    I walked a mile this morning before work so that's 6 out of 40 miles done for me.

    2.25 miles today, I waited until to late in the afternoon, I wanted to walk more but it was getting way too hot, so I had to stop! Feels so good to feel motivated!

    Do any of you ladies know if Leslie Sansone does a lighter intensity walk? My doctor is restricting my exercise for a few weeks due to a strained back but said I can do some light walking.

    Hey, I'm not sure which dvd you have already, but usually on the back or the insert of them it has the website of her other dvd's or you can always look on amazon or google it also. But I know she has a few different walking dvd's, some are for kids and families, some are for the elderly, she has beginners walking dvd's... not really sure which would be considered lower intensity though.... I'm sure you could modify any of her dvd's though... when she is doing knee lifts or kicks just do side steps or lift a little off the ground but not all the way? Just check with your Dr first.

    I have the 1,2,3,4,5 mile Leslie Sansone video. When I first started doing it I did a mile every day for a week and ended up sore. I'd like to try 1/2 mile for a week then graduate to a mile, then 1-1/2 miles, the 2, because I have over 100 lbs to lose and serious joint problems and back problems and am always waylaid with pain when I exercise. That's 19 miles til the end of August starting today, and skipping the day I am on vacation at Waterworld in Adventureland in Des Moines, IA.

    I am so inspired!

    Thanks! I've been looking and I think I'll try the beginner one (I have a 5 mile walk and tone one I think) and modify like you said. I'll just take it easy. I haven't done any more miles yet; may be just a 1/2 mile at a time now.

    that's a good safe way to start walking... just work your way up. Don't want any injuries and if you start with too many you could not only get hurt, but start feeling less inspired to do it. I love these walking dvd's. I didn't do any walking today, but I'll definitely be doing it tomorrow. We're all going to reach our August goal and be so proud we did it! Then we can set a new goal for September!

    Hi! I would like to join in, too. I bought a Leslie Sansone DVD about 3 weeks ago and haven't cracked open the cellophane yet. So, this would be great motivation for me. I'll pledge 10 miles for the remainder of August.
