    Hi my name is Raegan and I'm going to start the walking challenge as soon as we get back from my sisters on January 3rd. I had a spinal fusion in July and I'm always looking for things I can do to slowly get back to where I was years ago before the pain. I think starting at the lowest level this first month and then moving up each month will be a great start. =)

    Hi, just over a year ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer months of chemo and radiotherapy and no hair later I'm finally starting to feel better but have not much energy, so a new year brings a new life for me as I'm going to start the 30 day beginners walk tomorrow in 5 minutes tries, just walking around our block with a walking stick or the dog :smile: so all the best to you all that are on this journey and hope at the end of it we will all feel a lot fitter x

    Greg here and I too just found this challenge. I will be stepping up my goal in this challenge to 15K. Along with the exercises that go with it. I encourage you all to help me with this goal and push me. I do have some obstacles that I must deal with in obtaining this goal.I am currently walking 10k per day so it's time to challenge myself to increase it.

    Hello. My name is Donna and I NEED this challenge. I will begin this challenge today at the beginners level. I've been stuck at the Day 6 level for some time. I have some physical challenges--lower back and knees--that slow me down. However, I am determined to get to my first goal, which is 10,000 steps daily. So here goes....

    Hi, I'm Char from St. Louis. I'm going to be 70 years old next month. I'm wanting to lose weight and I know that exercise is a big part of that. I've only been walking 5 days a week for 1 hour each day and I don't know if I can do 6 days a week. I'm going to see if I can. I would love to be able to walk 10,000 steps a day. Perhaps with support I can do it.

    Hi, my name is Kim. I started out a couple of years ago at almost 400 lbs. I lost 85 using mostly Leslie Sansone videos. Then got hit with a medical issue and had to stop exercising for a while. I went back up to 300 lbs and went way off track with eating and exercise. I am trying to get back in the habits that were successful for me; but it has been hard. I am starting this challenge to help me get back to where I need to be. I'm going to start off with beginner and go from there.
