i just posted this at my status and thought i would look for more people who would like to join me!!!
this week my goal is to walk a marathon in 6 days! i have biggest loser power walk and leslie sansone's walk at home and weather permitting i can take a walk with my babies! BUT i am thinking that since you burn approx 100 calories per mile, i am going to shoot for 35 miles mon-sat. this would mean i would burn 3500 calories from walking this week! please join me if you would like!
