    Day 31: 35 minute brisk walk. I noticed some of our trees are starting to change; yay! I love autumn, it's my favorite season.

    Day 32: attempted to walk outside again (still a little hot for me in the 80s can't wait until it gets to the low 70s over night). I pushed myself to do 36 minutes and I am planning on taking my daughter and the kids I watch swimming today. It's nice to see I have been improving. When I first started walking back in may, before it got too hot, I could barely handle 15 minutes and would be so sore the rest of the day I couldn't handle doing anything else. Now I can handle more and able to do more throughout the day not in pain :smile:

    Day 32: 65 minute walk, part of it touring the cannabis farm and store - fascinating! also legal in Washington State - and the rest outside, enjoying the balmy evening. Now I'll rub a little of the salve I purchased on my arthritic hands, and head to bed.

    It's ok to do small amounts, it's better than nothing at all :smile: I have days I only do a 20-30 min video or walk. To me those are rest days in this challenge. I don't think I would still be doing this challenge if I didn't have short days sometimes and this challenge is helping me a lot. Even though I keep struggling with food and the doing good, then wanting to give up cycle I still have this challenge making me get the movement in.

    Day 35: 35 minute walk. I almost gave up this morning, this is the first time I have thought about actually quitting. I just had a moment of not feeling well and being tired mixed with stress. I didn't want to do a video and I didn't want to get dressed and rush out the door for a walk in 85+ degrees already. I made myself get dressed and take the walk with my daughter so she could get some fresh air. I feel so much better and glad I didn't throw all of this hard work away and that's what made me do it. The thought of having to start over seemed a lot longer to me. On to the next struggle and staying on track today. I have had 3 days of struggling to get back on track so today I will do it!

    Day 36: did a 35 minute walk with 2 minutes of stretching. I am enjoying walking outside just hate that it's still too hot for me even at 7-8am! I can't wait until it hits 70s overnight. I am going to try to walk on the days I can. It's hard on days I have the kids I watch so those are the days I will do videos.

    Day 38, 35 minutes calisthenics doing PT with my trainer (ow) and 45 minutes brisk walk, for 80 minutes total. And then I fell asleep in my recliner. My son just woke me up, as he tiptoed out to his evening activities.
