September Walking Challenge 2014

Options
This is continued from previous Walking Challenges, but it’s nice when each month has its own thread.

*** Anyone can join in at any time. The more the merrier, let’s 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 every day, and keep an eye on each other.


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

Hope to see some more faces in this challenge; we'll start trackingSeptember 1st.

    I am in, most of mine will be done on the elliptical though. I have signed up for a Color run 5k in three weeks and I am hoping I will be able to walk - run some of it.

    I love walking. I walk my dog at night and I've been thinking, you know, I shouldn't flip-flop and circle the block. I should put on my walking shoes and see the neighborhood at night. :flowerforyou: I'll be friend requesting ya'll.
