    @sark1971, I like your idea of 300,000 steps this month. I'm all about my Fitbit Zip! Not quite as confident as @faithit365, but I'm cheering you on all the way. :D And btw, love your screen name and avatar.

    Made over 10,000 steps yesterday. Out the gate and off to a good start!!

    I'm in. Managed something like 70miles walking last month, no cycling but plenty of dancing.

    Let's aim for 80miles this month, am keeping up with the couch to 5k so all doable, even if it IS the festive season!!!

    Will be going offline for a long weekend, on an island on an island cut off at high tide. It's a friend's birthday, so there will be more imbibing than physical exercise but I could do with a break!!

    Keep at it people - great to see some new folk here.

    Good morning guys! So I was all psyched up about making my 10,000 steps every day and guess what... My treadmill died! Ok, it's not dead, but it's temporarily out of service. Huff... Maybe my cute fix-it guy can get it repaired today. :#

    oh I'm still here @SteveCro (pleased to hear you're clean). Wait 'til you hear all MY adventures for the weekend....

    Spent the weekend celebrating a friend's birthday in a fort. On an island, attached to a slightly bigger island in a group of islands (closer to France than England). The fort was built to keep the French away, but ended up being occupied by the Germans, trying to get to the British. But we hid.

    My room looked out onto the rocks and the spume-filled sea, and we locked the drawbridge at night to keep away the marauding hordes (all 1600 island residents). Mostly we wanted to stop them getting at our barrel of beer.

    There was some walking (quite a bit more than I planned, but then when you stay on a fort connected to an island by a causeway, the pub seems quite far to travel), plenty of dancing (the table bounced but survived), a lot of out-of-focus photos taken of waves and a fair amount of hilarity. And fancy dress. Thankfully the flight home (in a 'shoe') was less eventful than the flight out, which had been first evacuated due to dripping fuel from the engines and then delayed whilst they flew out an engineer and a spare plane to get us....

    My walking so far for December - 22 miles already!!!! well on target.
