  • Dear friends and fellow walkers Just stopping by to say hi and let you know that I cannot commit to any mileage this month. I am still recovering from my arthritis flare up and do what I can whenever I can. Right now I am drowning in work (gardening, business) so I don't even have enough time for a decent 4 or 5 mile walk.…

  • I was a heavy (literally) smoker for 37 years and quit 1 1/2 years ago cold turkey when I was 4 weeks in my weight loss journey. The first 3 days were tough and to keep my lips busy I had a pencil with me all the time. When the craving was strong I did push ups. Oh boy, that made me quite fit and my biceps and triceps were…

  • A bit later than usual but not too late. Of course I join in again and plan on 60 miles in May. I was MIA because my mother was here and we celebrated her 85th. It was nice and stressful at the same time. Now I have to get the garden weeded and a new puppy to house-train. All that will keep me going :wink: 5/4 2 miles…

  • I have a fitbit which I have "unfriended" after a while because it gave me too many calories, I thought. For running I use Runkeeper to track everything, very nice app, very reliable GPS tracking and free. However: for the next while I cannot do any heavy impact exercise and no running so I am walking a lot now and have…

  • The higher the heart rate the less calories burned come from the fat depots. This is because of the fact that when you burn fat oxygen is needed. When you train with high HR you're closer to the anaerobe zone where fuel comes from glycogen (carbs) stored in the muscles.When I walk 60 mins for 5K I burn a bit less than when…
