    Hi Everyone, my goal for October is to walk 100 miles.

    Oct 1: I walked 5.4 km (3.25 miles) today. It was a beautiful fall day - perfect for walking.
    Oct 2: I walked 4.2 km (2.5 miles) today. Total 5.75 miles. Another beautiful fall day.
    Oct 3: No walk
    Oct 4: I walked 5.4 km (3.25 miles) today. Total 9.00 miles. Such a great evening.
    Oct 5: I walked 3.25 miles today. Total 12.25 miles. Started out with great weather but ended up in the pouring rain. Oh well, it's still Friday!! Canadian Thanksgiving, so a long weekend - hurray!!
    Oct 6: I walked 3.6 miles today. Total 15.85 miles. Quite a bit cooler today - had to wear a warm jacket - but still a nice day, especially for walking.
    Oct 7: I walked 3.3 miles today. Total 19.15 miles. Very cool again to day plus starting to get dark so early - walked at 8:00 pm in the dark. Too bad!
    Oct 8: No walk. (Canadian Thanksgiving - too many dinner guests - too much turkey and pumpkin pie!!)
    Oct 9: I walked 3.25 miles today. Total 22.4 miles. Fabulous fall day today - leaves are changing colour. Such a great time of year to walk.
    Oct 10: No walk today.
    Oct 11: I walked 3.25 miles today. Total 25.65 miles. Soooo cold today - I broke down and wore my down-filled coat. It's so sad, it's only October - what will I wear in January?? But I walked...
    Oct 12: Gosh, where is everyone tonight?? I walked just 1.75 miles today. Total 27.4 miles. It was a great night - Friday, nice weather and our granddaughter is sleeping over so she walked with us also - it's all good!! Have a great weekend, everyone.
    Oct 13: I walked just 1 mile on Saturday. Total 28.4 miles.
    Oct 14: I walked 3.25 miles today. Total 31.65 miles. I need to get moving if I'm to hit my target for the month. It was quite a good walk tonight - very mild with a bit of rain at the beginning but it stopping shortly after we got started.
    Oct 15: I walked 3.25 miles today. Total 34.9 miles. A great night for a walk - a rough day at work so I really needed the walk.

    Happy walking, all. :flowerforyou:

My husband (and walking buddy) is away for the week so I need to try to get my walks in early - I don't want to walk in the dark by myself. It was a perfect fall day for walking - just great.

    Happy walking, all. :flowerforyou:

    I only joined this website the other day so can only say that I try my hardest to walk for at least 30 minutes each day some of which is quite hilly. I am in my seventies so its never too late to get fit!
