OCTOBER 2015 walking challenge

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.
good luck

Good goals - good luck for October!0 -
My goal is going to be 105,000 steps per week. Certain days its impossible to get them to my 15k per day goal, but a weekly average is realistic for me. Time to wear the soles out of more shoes!0

Welcome! Good luck with your goals0 -
Count me in for October! Thanks0

I would like to attempt this. I have been trying to find ways to enjoy walking. I have been doing between 1.5-2miles a day for the last 3 weeks. I often find other work outs more enjoyable, but this is definitely relaxing.0
-
I love these walking challenges, they always give me the little bit of extra motivation to get out and move everyday.0
-
I will be doing this. I am determined. First time for me.0
-
I'm in. I walk 4 miles on my lunch hour when the weather is nice. I'll try to do by Leslie Sansone walking DVD when it's not (I hope walking in place counts). I also hike.0

I'm in! My main form of exercise is walking. I'm probably going to start C25K next week! Anyone feel free to add me! ☺0
-
Count me in!! Would benefit me and my dogs!! Goal would be at least 60 minutes 5 days a week.0

I'd love to be a part of this. Lately i've lost my motivation and walking have been always a favorite form of exercising (though running is the best). I pledge to walk every day no matter what!0
