ok guys. Same as past few months. You may select your own mode of exercise as long as it produces steps/miles..... You also decide your own goal on how many miles, steps etc...

I was over 6.5 Walking Miles in June. Due too camping in one of our local State parks and walking a lot. Camping produces less chores than at home...lol....

My personal goal for July will be 120 WALKING MILES...

Hope too see everyone there. I am blessed <3 you guys join me and I dont have too walk and log progress alone...THANKS TOO EACH OF YOU... :)

    I really need to start walking. Can we do time, instead of distance? I have various health issues... I can start with 15 minutes, and try to up from there. I don't really have a way to measure distance. ... maybe use Google Earth ruler feature? LOL

    I am in. I am going to aim for 300000 steps!

    @Vivy913 if you have a smart phone there is a free app called pedometer. It is a pretty cool step counter. Only problem, have to take the phone with you wherever you go. I am using it until I can get a fitbit/varmin.

    Stopped to rest 3 or 4 times. Gonna remember to bring my oxygen next time and try to do the whole 10 minutes in one go, without my chest feeling like it's going to implode LOL

    Ok - here it goes. My record for July so far...

    I July: walking, to and from train stations mainly
    2 July: cycling

    This was to my daughter's music lesson. It is good to turn a chore journey into family exercise - and it is quite a pleasant ride (thru 3 small parks). Just have to get out of the house on time!

    350 cals burned or more: 1 out of 2 (26 cumulative total towards my 100 target).
    Atleast over 30 mins: 1
    Lazy/rest days: 0

    Welcome to the new faces. O.26 miles or the full marathon - it all counts on this challenge. (2 years ago I could not walk 10 mins straight either, I'd been so ill....) I find setting realistic goals and keeping a record of how I am doing still really motivates me, and I hope it helps you all too!
