Stay busy

I think it's key to stay out of the house as much as possible. Let's take advantage of the fact that it's not cold, snowy, or rainy. We should be outdoors because before you know it we will be too cold to go outside.

Nothing wrong with exercising outside in the cold (unless you live somewhere where there is snow - ugh). I started C25K in the middle of our winter and was running/stumbling around the neighbourhood while bundled up in a big hoodie - including at least one run in drizzle and couple of long walks in full rain - just used an umbrella for those ones0

Depends on where you live in the world! LOL Last week and this week we are running about 46 C -48 C (about 114-118 F ) with humidity. A tad bit hot and humid to be breathing outside let alone walking! But my indoor treadmill will be fine!0

Staying busy is my biggest problem. when i am not working i don't move. I did get a fitbit and it helps. At times i can't believe how still i was, It makes me move so my steps can add up.0

So true! I'm in New York and selfishly was just thinking about my climate0

I'm in Texas and it's hot and humid right now. I do take daily walks at the lake, my pup really enjoys it and we both get exercise. We have to either go early in the morning or in the evening because otherwise its just nasty. So ready for Fall weather! Here is my pup this evening and a lake shot. In the Fall and Winter I can easily spend all day down there.

You are very lucky to have such a wonderful place to walk...and with a cute partner too!

Thanks, we do love the places we walk. Yesterday we went to the pond to feed the ducks. It's a daily thing. lol

I am looking forward to fall yard clean up, we have a good sized yard and the oak trees keep us busy. We are right next to conservation land and they barf all their leaves in our yard. But winter....yikes....after it starts snowing, the only outdoor exercise is shoveling and maybe some sledding on the weekends with my girls. Other wise its gets a bit dangerous to be out running or walking after work. Its already dark out, the roads are hazardous and the snow on the sidewalks isn't cleared or if it is, not that well. And cycling is straight out. Don't mind the cold too much though unless it start dropping into the single digits.0

That looks likes beautiful area. I'm just outside of Houston, and I can't wait for fall.0 -
I wholeheartedly agree with this. Even when I don't feel like it I try to get out of the house every day. It seems to both take my mind off of food and keep me active.
Yesterday I decided to skip my connecting bus and walk the extra 1.5 miles to my destination and it was so worth it to get some sightseeing in.

One of the benefits of C25K is that it has got me out of the house a lot more. I love it. On my last run I saw a giant turtle and got wayyy too excited.
