    Well, my total for March was 130.5, but I will have more time after the middle of April to walk because all my heavy grading should be done-Sooo, I am going to try for 140 miles for April. I am not brave enough to go for 150 yet, even with the Vivofit making me move! :laugh:

    April Goal-140 miles

    4/1-Vivofit Tracked-1.2 miles :grumble:
    4/2-Vivofit Tracked -3.2 miles=4.4 total miles

    Walk Strong Everyone! :bigsmile:

    Welcome to our new walkers! So good to have you all join in our monthly challenge group :) .

    Oh, Pinky, do take it easy and let your body heal. Have you checked if you might have worn out your shoes? Shoes can break down inside even if they look fairly good on the outside after we put some miles on them, and you put serious miles on yours. The need for new shoes can sometimes sneak up on us. I do hope it is an easy fix like that for you. {{{Hugs}}}.

    Ann, you have a good plan in place for this month! Enjoy your company :) .

    Mawskittykat , that is a good plan so that you can get some strength training in. Yes, please let us know how you like the kettleball workouts. They look awesome when I watch on you tube, but I know they wouldn't be good for my back either.

    We are all walking strong!

    :flowerforyou:

    Good Morning everyone, Happy April

    Goals for April with the nicer weather coming I am hoping to get outside walking with my girls a little bit more so I think I will increase my goals to ***115*** I am going to try for the 30 day challenge

    I figure 30 - 7 rest days = 21 days x 5 miles = 115 miles

    April 1-4 * 21 miles* using the 4 Mile Power walk and parts of the 3 Mile Mega walk. Friday and Saturday are the only days that I made the 10,000 step goal as I had just decided on Friday that I would do this challenge
    April 5-11 *
    April 12-18 *
    April 19-25 *
    April 26-30 *

    Total so far this month is 21 /115 miles.

    Total so far this month is 14 /115 miles.

    First day of Couch to 5K I think I pulled a muscle in my leg (Ouch) so I have been babying it a little bit after the run this morning and not pushing the other walks but doing them any way.

    I was able to get out to the park with the girls today the temperature said 6 but with the windchill it was more like -1. I am so looking forward to warmer weather.

    Have a good week everyone.

    Somehow I've missed checking in here .... Anyway - I'm doing Leslie's April Challenge of 10,000 a day and so far so good. On one of her DVDs (can't recall which one) she comments that we never regret having gotten up and exercised, but often regret not exercising. That's motivated me to do what it takes to get the steps in every day, morning and after work. It's working so far:

    April 1 4 Really Big Miles (Walk Slim) + work ...12,771
    April 2 2 Miles (Burn 30) + 3 Miles (40 Minute Super Burn) ...11,651
    April 3 3 Miles (40 Minute Super Burn) + work ...10,781
    April 4 3 Miles (40 Minute Super Burn) +outdoor walk w/the boy ...12,677
    April 5 4 Miles Power Walk + 2 Miles (Burn 30) + a 'lil bit of yard work ... 11,814
    April 6 2 Miles (Burn 30) + 30 Minute Big Burn (Walk Off Fat Fast) + work ... 10,231

    04/02/15 =1 mile Leslie Walk Away The Pounds
    04/07/15 =2 mile Leslie Walk Away The Pounds

    March total 3/60

    In reference to the question about the Kettlebell Workout. I have done some videos that I found on you tube and really enjoyed it. It was a beginners workout and wasn't too tough but tough enough for a really good calorie burn. But the DVD that I purchased OMG, I don't think I will ever have that kind of strength. Gonna try it again today.
