    Ok so I got my ticker set up for the month, and got a 2 mile walk in yesterday, going to do the same today while little one is down for a nap! Hope everyone has a succesful weekend!

    3.4 miles for me today but faster.

    I went back to my original walk that I did when I started logging here:
    3.4 miles round the park in 61 minutes burned 296 calories. Today, I did it in 53 minutes and burned 342 calories.
    I've decided that I want to try to get up to 4 miles an hour but not sure how long that will take.

    Go to your signature page and the web address for your ticker is copied there. Go to that address and click on Update Ticker and put in your pin and plug in your miles and then click next. Good luck!

    I've decided that I want to try to get up to 4 miles an hour but not sure how long that will take.

    The best way to up your speed is to shorten your stride and punp your arms to propel you. It feels a bit silly at first, but it really makes you move!

    I finally got another walk in today - 6 miles.

    Great! Thanks for the info and glad you got your walk in - won't be long now till the Moonwalk - are you getting anxious?

    I had a great walk today, it seems the weather was better on the east coast - I've logged 6 miles cross country but I actually switched my phone app off at 7.6... Too many cals burned to think about!!!! Too tired! Treated myself to some Whittards luxury hot chocolate! Didn't push my speed as I was with the rambling group and difficult to do walking on rough ground.... :flowerforyou: :drinker:

    Thank you, NV, for organizing this challenge. And thank you, Linda, for letting me know about it. It was just what I needed to boost my motivation. So far, so good! Had a wonderful 3.25 mile walk today at about 3.25 mph. That's a longer walk than usual and a little faster pace. And I did it without stopping to rest. I even jogged a little!! Helped that the weather was cool. I jumped on the stairstepper at the end of the day because I'd used up my calories and wanted a salad. :tongue: I feel good! :happy:

    30 minutes in today. :) Doing C25K...I might adjust my goal to a smaller one. I was going to try to walk on the other days, but I decided to either rest or do some AB stuff and give my legs a rest.

    Not sure it it's cheating, but I am counting the hour I spent mowing the grass yesterday... hey, I am still taking steps, plus I am pushing a heavy mower (not self propelled)
    I also got up this morning & taking an hour and 7 minute walk. I was bookin it, almost 4 miles an hour. I pushed my son in his stroller.
