Wednesday Weekend Planning Session

Most of us have more flexibility on the weekends and it's often easier to be more active then. So let's start thinking about the weekend now (isn't that what Wednesday is for?) and pick some “moving” activities that we'd like to do. What going on in your neighborhood or city this weekend that you might like to do? What outdoor activities sound fun or perhaps just need to get done? Start planning for the weekend now!

Alternative Challenge: Go out for at least a 30 minute walk today!

    I have walked into work today from the bus, and will walk back to the bus tonight for a total of 30 minutes of walking. After work I'm meeting up with my niece to walk on a trail where the railroad used to go through. It's very nice and scenic. We even walk on the tracks through a lake. It's very relaxing and I get exercise too! Last week we walked for about 90 minutes. I hope to do at least an hour. Will post about it later. Everyone have a great day! Thanks for the challenge Auna37!

    This weekend I'm going to the opera La Boheme - that doesn't sound particularly active, but walking around the Music Center and climbing the stairs to my nosebleed seats always makes it a fairly active day. I'll make sure to get up and move around during intermission. :)

    Planning done!

    I am taking the day off from work on Friday and traveling upstate to see a friend. We are going hiking (not a very long hike probably). Then Saturday I work all day at a restaurant. Then Sunday I have a first date where we are going sightseeing nearby and to a museum. :) Lots of activity this weekend!

    @betsym3, I'm really impressed with your walking dedication! I also have a favorite walk along a lake too, so I know what you mean about relaxing. So happy you are walking with your niece!

    @77tes and @meganepreston great weekend plans. Enjoy the opera, the hike, the museum, and yes...the first date!

    I'm still mulling over my weekend plans....

    I work Saturday so my best goal is a 15,000 step count and a 35 min barre workout. Sunday will be a river valley walk and swimming! Yay!

    Thank you "themedalist"! We had a great walk for about an hour and 15 minutes. Thanks for the encouragement!

    This is a long weekend here in Canada. May 2-4 weekend for Victoria Day on Monday. The weather is supposed to be great. Looking forward to having friends over for fireworks, sitting outside, maybe some gardening if I can and opening up the doors and windows while I organize.

    Today my hubby and I to my girls to the Justin Beiber concert it Toronto (amazing by the way) and we walked around.
