    I'm up for this challenge. I swim 2x a week & stationary bike 2-3x a week. I'm at a weight loss stalemate. I was walking in the winter but got bored. I live very remote. Not many roads & lots of trees to look at but a challenge might be what I need

    I’d love to join in, I definitely need some motivation to get more steps in. I’ll set my target at 8,000 a day, as I have a very sedentary job 😢

    I had a good day today, getting out and about with the kids and decided to walk instead of taking the car 🚗

    A bit of a lazy day today as it was on and off raining all day. Managed to get out for a very short walk, but quit early because we were all soaked through ☹️. I ended up getting through the rest of my steps dancing with the kids and giving the house a good tidy. Back to work tomorrow, so fingers crossed I can keep it up.

    @MadisonMolly2017 Nice to see you here and on the June Reboot Challenge as well.
    @mizzmagenta I would not say 8000 steps is much of a lazy day! We will keep cheering for you as you try to make this work with work.

    Busy day at work today, at 9pm I had only done 1,894 steps 😳… just smashed an hour’s walk on the treadmill whilst watching Netflix to get all my steps in before bed.

    @RoblinB thank you for your words of encouragement. I think I would have given up and sat down to watch TV, but I thought, no, I’m going to do this 😄

    @mizzmagenta You are welcome! 🙂 I love the “smashed” imagery! Well smashed! I also have a very sedentary job and I know how it feels to see that you still need 6000 steps when you would rather go bed!

    @MadisonMolly2017 Weather can make things challenging where I live, too. Did you hit your goal today?

    Goal 3,500 (will increase as I build back up!)

    June 4 3105 (heat wave) but I did do many other leg exercises & PT stretches indoors!
    June 5 1,992 + arm weights & leg PT exercises VERY HOT

    CAME UP WITH A PLAN FOR THE SUMMER:
    I looked for a pool exercise class & couldn’t find one (will look more in future, so I came up with a new plan.

    Walk in the morning when UV is around 1-3.

    Got up, dressed, sunscreen sunglasses hat let’s water & GO!

    So many other people out walking jogging & heavy gardening..❤️

    Walked longer than I expected & more than I did any other day this week! I’m sitting at 3737 steps so I will hit my 5,000 goal today❣️Maybe even higher.

    I wanted to walk further but decided to turn around because of UV but if I get out on my walk earlier I will have the flexibility to lengthen my walk. I used to walk 10K ever day and then > 7K every day + exercises. That seems in reach again!

    I will admit I was really sore when I set out on the walk. Hip ankles even my hands. I thought I might have to turn around. This is new for me & im not happy about it.

    Bumped into an old art friend - chatted two mins (so my miles per minute was actually faster!) and after a bit more walking I realized the discomfort had reduced almost completely

    I can’t believe I’d forgotten that exercise gets easier after you warm up.

    So thank you so much- glad to be in the groove again ❤️🩷💜

    Didn’t quite make my 8,000 steps today, working from 9am to 7.30pm so the wasn’t too much opportunity to get up and walk. Fingers crossed for a better day tomorrow 🤞🏻

    @mizzmagenta You were very close to goal yesterday. I’m sure your body is grateful for that effort nonetheless.

    @MadisonMolly2017 Sounds like a great plan and obviously you made it work for you yesterday. Neat that you ran into a friend. Anything interesting today? I hope you find a pool class.

    Long day at work and then a hospital appointment with my daughter. A lot of sitting around waiting. The kids wanted movie night and didn’t really appreciate me marching on the spot 😂

    Nice little walk planned for tomorrow morning, so hopefully I can make up for the lack of steps over the last two days.
