(14/100)Youβre preaching to the converted. π Walking is one of my solid habits. I walk indoors and out (depending on weather). I use walking videos, and get additional strength exercises in many of them. And I walk during ad breaks when watching TV. It all adds up!Where thereβs a will, thereβs a way!
I have daily steps, and active hours goals set on my Fitbit, with alarms set 15 minutes before the hour every 2 hours so that I can have at least a 10 minute walk.

I am new here, and on board with Walktober- the health plan through my employer has a Walk 100 miles in October challenge so this is great to be motivated in two places! According to my FitBit, in 4 days I've put in 7.16 miles. I will make time during my workday to leave my office and walk around the building and climb the 2 flights of stairs to hit all three floors.5

Chugging along got a 2.35 mile walk in late this afternoon was very nice and warm still struggling with to many carbs each day but think I am doing better if that makes any sense!4

Thank you for this great chart @themedalist !! Many things I didnβt know!
I credit my extensive walking with most of my positive health outcomes including my weight loss AND maintenance
The one I love the most?
My Avg daily resting HR has dropped 2 beats each of the last 3.5 years.
From 59 (after I had lost 53 lbs) to 57 to 55 and now to 54.
Walking is miraculous! Thank you for being such an advocate of walking & moving!!donna25trinity wrote: Β»Report 4th

10-4 Done 5 mile walk on another picture perfect day. I slipped in some mud during my first mile and went down hard, but rebounded. Again, quite tedious, but I did it at a blistering pace. My first mile was under 14 minutes, and the remaining 4 miles were 14:30 or under.2 -

10-7 Done. I pulled back the pace a bit today and averaged 15:24. In addition to my toe bothering me, today my shin started hurting, probably from walking a certain way favoring the toe. Ugh. Well, about half way through the walk the naproxen must have kicked in because I felt fine!
Keep going everyone!5 -
