in Fitness and Exercise
This is continued from previous Walking Challenges, but its nice when each month has its own thread.

*** Anyone can join in at any time, the more the merrier, lets keep each other motivated****

Walking seems like the easiest way to start getting exercise, and even if you can't track distance (or don't want to), tracking time is good too...go for a 10 min walk after dinner, or up it to 30 minutes, you'll be amazed at the end of the month how much more exercise your getting in. :)

Check in everyday with how far you walked or how long, this is just to motivate us to get in at least some exercise everyday, and keep an eye on each other.


I want to try to keep this mostly to walking or walking type exercising. treadmills and ellipticals are A-OK.

Hope to see some more faces in this challenge, we'll start tracking July 1st.

    Count me in too! I keep track of my progress with the Cardio Trainer app on my phone. For the month of June I logged 28.6 miles. I have been trying to do C25K, but I really do suck at running. I know I can walk though...so bring it on! :bigsmile:

    I am in! I walked two miles this evening, and I walked for several hours earlier today. We visited the local Aquarium and the Insectarium in New Orleans. We parked at a parking garage that was several blocks away and walked to the Aquarium, then walked to the Insectarium, around the French Quarter and back to the car. It was a great day!
