Would anyone like to join me in making a committment to walking at least 30 minutes a day? I am far from being considered a runner, but maybe if I ease into it, I may be able to join the runner's club someday.

count me in. i need to start doing some kind of exercise. walking most of the day at work isn't doing it. i'm suppose to be using a pedometer to count my steps. i must be pretty dumb, haven't been able to figure it out. i'll have to try again. maybe if i am accountable to someone other than my family i'll be able to do it. keep in touch. today is 8-10. i'll start right after work. thanks0

I've been very lasy in the exercise dpt.0 -
Walking is my primary exercise so I am in!0

I started off walking 20 to 30 min. a day now I do a 22 min walk in the morning from station to work instead of taking the bus, then at lunch 36 min ( need time to eat my lunch) then from work back to station. I just added the morning walk. I am not able to run so all I have is walking. So I am in. Maybe I can just offer support if you think I walk too much for this club. I know it was very hard at first for me to get the motivation to do this everyday. Lets walk away those pounds. :drinker:0

I would love to join. I have been so motivated to change my diet but I can't seem to get motivated to exercise everyday.
It is actually great timing. I go back to work (teacher) and I can walk during my lunch and after school!!!

Cool Beans. I'm so sporatic with my walking. I'm supposed to be walking an hour everyday but most days I don't . I love it when I do...but most days I make some sort of excuse on why I don't need to.
Anyone else have the Nike +? I got that to help motivate me to walk as it wasn't that pricey. I just need calibrate to my walking stride.
SO how does the club work?
Also, it starts tomorrow? Monday the 11th?0 -
i'm in! i lost the bulk of my weight when i just walked. (1 hour/ 5 days a week)..i stopped doing it last summer because it got so hot, but i have decided to cut back on gym classes and go back to what worked for me!!!...i didn't always enjoy walking - just getting started was like pulling teeth but now i love to walk and look forward to it...here are some things that helped me learn to enjoy the walking.....find a nice place to walk like the beach or a nice trail (walking around a track is boring and every step is torture)....get some good music with a strong beat (Micaheal Buble' is no good for walking! ha ha ha! )...find a friend (when i walk with friends my hour goes by soooo fast!)....those REALLY helped get me motivated!!!! :flowerforyou:0

I would love to join. Hopefully, this will keep my accountable.0

I just started using the site today and have this as one of my goals, so count me in!0

30min. a day? I can do that. Actually, I pretty much do that now anyway and I'm on my way to the gym in about an hour and can get started on that today.0

I started today...I got in 26 minutes of walking (could have done an hour or more, but it started pouring!) I came inside and did a walking DVD...I highly recommend it...today was the first time I used it...but it will keep me accountable because I can't use excuses not to go outside and walk (it's too hot, it's too dark, etc.) Now I can walk any time and get a good burn in...it's called Walking off the Pounds Express and it done upper body and lower body. I love it! Anyway, I did 50 minutes of that and 26 minutes of actual walking outside...so check me off for today...who else got started early?0

I'd like to walk with you. Do we post our results on here or how do we do it?0

Ok Everyone... It is Monday the start of a NEW day and a NEW you!!!
I have always had a hard time motivating myself to work out. In fact I hate doing it by myself. Guess What....
I walked 30 minutes this morning!!!! I feel great. I think that I may try to go again tonight with my neighbor. We'll see.
Hope that everyone has a successful day. Remember even if you can't do 30 min at one time split it up. Do it in intervals of 10 minutes.
Good Luck and have a great day!!!!

Great job my fellow walkers!
I will try to walk an hour after I feed the girls... an hour is pushing it... too many interruptions,
Keep it up!!!!:drinker:0 -
Good Morning I did 22 min and hopefully will get my 36 min walk on lunch, but even if that does not happen because of the rain I will do another 22 after work to the station. Good luck and happy walking:bigsmile:0
