Moved back up to WI last year after 30 years in Hell...er, I mean Hades Waiting Room, aka Florida.

So I had PLANNED to walk south along the Lake Trail, and planned where to join up with it using apps and driving down during the week with someone who had walked it before. However, once I actually got down there....things were NOT as I had planned out, so I had to adjust on my feet (ha ha, get it?) Still made my 4 mile…

@sijomial So jealous! Well, ok, not of the flat, obviously, but of where you are! Southern England is my "happy place", specifically Salisbury. I'm a "hybrid", Mum is from there (born in Oxford, uni @ Cambridge, Hitchen is "home") and was just in Market Harborough in Feb before all the CV-19 hit. Would love to be back…

Yikes! Did my walk yesterday, took my shower & got stuck into homework all day, so I forgot to check in here! Who says only 2 classes & summer semester would be easier? @KJLaMore Hopefully your plumbing issues are behind you now & it wasn't anything too serious?

So, in my defense, it was at the end of my ride, I was going uphill and into 13mph winds when that large farm tractor passed me! #tiredlegs June goal: 55 miles 6/1 - Walked 2.75 miles 6/2 - Biked11.12 miles - (13.87 done, 41.13 to go)

I got out early today as it is set to get up to 92F - "record breaking heat" per the weatherman this morning - and was able to cross the busy highway to get over to the open country roads, even 1 I hadn't gone down before. Now, in my defense, it WAS at the end of the ride, I was going uphill, into 13mph winds when the huge…

Hmmm....Not gonna lie, THIS is a challenge! I thought "Oh, 24 hours? I can do that!" Yet still I failed last month. So, until I can accomplish it, I will stick with the baseline, hopefully since I am starting at the beginning of the month this time and with an actual plan that will help. GOAL: 24 hours - 1440 minutes 6/1 -…

Well, last month I set a 25 mile goal, and I seriously failed to get back in the saddle. Even though I am working through some shoulder, rotator cuff pain, I start OT today, and I should be able to accomplish the goal, considering I am actually starting at the beginning of the month this time. GOAL: 25 miles

@jeanniewes Wow, hope you get it back to 100% soon. My mum is a nurse, so I totally understand! and, he may be "retired" on paper, but, really, is a nurse EVER really retired? lol My mum is 76 and just finished her CEU's to renew her license, even though she hasn't worked for a few years. Enjoy your hike and camp, looking…

HA! Needed to really double look at this one, as my name is Helen! KNEW it could not mean me, as I seriously failed to get back in the saddle this month. I had planned a few more days, but I was sore on a few of them (going through some shoulder pain, I start OT tomorrow) and rained on others, Oh well, June is another…
-
Thank you, @jeanniewes for starting the month off! And great of you for overshooting your goals! Hope your knee is healed and feeling better. Going though arthritis issues myself in my knees, more so since moving back to WI, so I understand! Well, last month I was cautious, and started 5 days into the month while modifying…

This morning, I was to walk 40 minutes per my plan. Decided to be good to myself and to go into the state park just down the road and got lost in my music, my "Viking" play list on Spotify, and made a couple "wrong" turns. (Then again, were they REALLY wrong?) Ended up going a just little longer - 1 hour, 2 mins - than the…

This morning, my plan called for a 40 minute walk. Decided to go into the State park just down the road and got lost in my music, had my "Viking" play list on Spotify going, and made a couple "wrong" turns. (Then again, were they REALLY wrong?) Ended up going a little longer than the plan called for, and in a sudden rain…

I love watching AvantGardeVegan. However, I get a little intimidated as he is a professional chef, and I'm just a home cook. But, ya know, if he chooses to come over and cook for me...I certainly won't say no! I REALLY enjoy Sweet Potato Soul, and several of her recipes are in my rotation. Sarah's Vegan Kitchen is another…

So, set out on a bike ride today, and it, well, was a comedy of errors! Didn't realize my watch was THAT low on battery and 8 miles or so in, I look down & it was stone cold dead! Stop, start my phone & resume. Get home, unclip my left foot, attempt to unclip my right, the shoe got stuck in the clip, meanwhile body already…

Set out on a bike ride this morning, planned 7-10 miles. However, didn't realize my watch was THAT low on battery! Just over 8 miles into the ride, I looked down & watch was stone cold dead. Start my phone, finish up my ride, get back to my car. Unclip my left foot and try to unclip my right and the shoe got stuck in the…

So "plan" says "40 min Cross Train" tomorrow. However, I did bike maintenance (cleaned and lubed the chain, pumped the tires) and I plan to take a long bike ride (10-15 miles).

As I have walked more than I thought I would this month, I decided to look up walking plans. There really aren't as many for walking, at least not as for running! I settled on a Jenny Hadfield HM walking plan. This is two fold: it gives me a plan instead of free-styling it, and also brings me down and allows me to build up…

@iyanchovska Way to go! Such a great feeling to be so close to your goal. I'm wondering if I will make mine for this month, getting started 5 days late. But great on you! I walked 2 5K's simultaneously today: Emma Loves Animals (a girl in Milwaukee who died of cancer) and the ASPCA virtual one in honor of my dog Emma who I…

Did the combo Emma Loves Animals and ASPCA 5K's today. My right knee has been in pain since yesterday & I did not sleep well at all last night. However, it was worth it to get them both walked, in memory of both Emmas. GOAL: 30 miles for the month. 5/5 - Ran 1.5 miles 5/7 - Walked 3.11 miles 5/8 - Walked 3.2 miles 5/11 -…
