    I just saw a January running challenge, and contemplated joining it, but I'm really not a runner. I do like to walk though so a quick search turned up this thread. I'm definitely in! I've been slowly getting back into MFP over the last week after months away, and I feel like I'm ready to tackle this new year. I may even go for a walk tomorrow!

    Hello everyone, what a wonderful way to keep each other motivated. Last Monday I started at MFP, so far lost 6 lbs!!! and I have a track, a Razer NabuX. I will start today to monitor my steps for real. Last week was warming up for the real work! How do I keep this Challenge saved? Have a nice day everybody. In Holland, as in the Netherlands, the wheather is great for a walk today: last night freezing, but the sun is shining!

    01/18/2016 2 miles, 4am, 8 degrees, headlamp and YakTrax, double layers on lower half, triple layers on top half.
    I would love to put in more miles, just too cold outside right now. Windchill brings it down into the -10/-15 area. On the upside, I saw that gas prices in Houghton (northern MI) went down to $.47/gallon! How crazy is that?!

    Right above the topic, on the right, (should be above the number of pages), there is a little star. When you click that star, it will turn gold and this topic will be saved. Then you just click on the star at the right corner of the community forum, or you can even click notifications next to that and it should bring you back to topic.

    Groovy walking!

    I recently started wearing my Jawbone again ... count me in even though it's the 14th already.

    I do most of my walking around the house, I try to get up and move at least once an hour. I also try to walk 30 or more minutes while watching Netflix. I haven't been walking as much as I was before the holidays which was 8000 - 10000 a day. I will get there again!

    Steps: 26897

    Just 800 steps today. Sigh life has conspired to keep me in a chair today. My whole leg is swollen now. Never mind mom needing help.

    LOL! today I wish I was counting steps instead of miles. I spent my "walk" time, shoveling snow! Let's see...maybe an hour of start and stop shoveling back and forth in my driveway would equal about a half hour of walk time?
