    Thanks for the support girls :) I'm loving walking, and actually woke up at 5am pumped to get out there and do my walk before it got too hot out. I NEVER in a million years thought I'd be a morning person looking forward to exercise!

    8/2 - .45mi 24min

    Total - .9mi
    Goal - 15mi

    I'm getting quicker ^_^ small improvement!

    Great job!!

    Only 2 miles today, I went swimming instead :smile:

    Hi everyone
    just found thread and like to join.

    I'll go for 2 miles a day, as I'm not sure how far I go in miles (usually calculate time and calories - HRM)
    Will try to download pedometer android app later

    Cross trainer counts if you want it to! This challenge is about pushing yourself to reach your own personal goals! :) Nice work out today! :)

    Welcome!! :) I use an app on my phone that has a pedometer, so you know your steps, and it also tells you distance, speed, maps your walk/run, etc. Hopefully you can find something similar for android. Good Luck! :)
