Wanna Go For a Walk, Week 2!

[SherryJ]

Hey Gang! :p

Sunday: 1/2 mile walk

Monday: 3 mile walk in an hour... walk time was less, but with boys, it's a challenge to not stop... water, say hello to dogs, etc.

Tuesday: 3 mile walk in 55 minutes... oh, every step was a struggle, but it's done now! :D

Wednesday: 3 mile walk in an hour... IN THE RAIN, WITH AN UMBRELLA... I thought FOR SURE I was going to join Mary Poppins, but I didn't! :p

At this point, I'm done for the week... schedule-wise, and weather-wise, it gets hairy from here on!

Thursday: 3 mile walk in 55 minutes... with thunder chasing me home the last 1/2 hour!!! :D

Friday: 1 mile in... 20 minutes... I think I'm getting addicted to walking! :p

Goal: 9-15 miles per week...

GOAL MET: 13.5 miles!!!

Hey, Sherry! Glad you started this thread. I thought I was going to have to do it!

Monday: 30 minutes
Tuesday: 25 minutes
Wednesday: 20 minutes
Thursday: a day of rest
Friday: 25 minutes (I almost didn't get this one in. I was walking out of my office and I decided if I didn't walk then I might miss it entirely. It was beautiful out, but windy and I wasn't dressed warm enough!)

100 minutes exactly! And there's still time to add more!:)

[SherryJ]

Alright, People! Where are the rest of you!?!?!?? :p

But, but, but...Carol - that's not fair :eek:! Now, if I'd been too playing on the net or doing Sudoku games then I'd deserve it :p!

Okay, I'm a softie! I'll give you a break. You always give me one! ;) Posting's important, though! You have a job as an inspirer. (Is that a word?)

Carol - I don't know if it is or not, but it works for me :D! Actually, I keep forgetting to post here and in the BTBF forum :rolleyes:. I'm so busy reading everyone else's posts that I forget what I was supposed to do for myself :p...

Sunday I put in last week's thread
Monday - 20 minutes uphill
Tuesday - 15 mins downhill
Weds - checked my phone log, and remembered I called a friend and walked up the hill, 20 min
Thurs - 15 minutes up the hill
Friday - nada. Sleepy. headachy.
Saturday - 60 minutes and a good chat with a friend. (_/_)(_\_) (hip bumps!) i even got uphill and downhill in, taking advantage of my natural environment. Hehehe.

Stevie, I know you're having a tough time with your time/schedule right now... Again, I wanted to say THANKS for this challenge, because I was looking at my legs this morning, :rolleyes: , and thought, "They look... tighter... maybe?" I'm not "scheduled" to measure til the 1st of June, but just because... I did! And, I was right! ONE INCH GONE from each thigh! And, that's just in two weeks! And, it's pretty much all your fault!!! :D

And, it's pretty much all your fault!!! :D
Yeah, what SHE said! I have my own reaction to tell you about, Stevie. I've been feeling really dragged out at times this last week or so. I'm eating the same, so I couldn't figure it out. Then it hit me: my blood sugar is dropping so low in the afternoons that I may have to ditch the meds again! Last summer when I quit walking, I went back on a low dose because my readings were creeping up. Look how fast that happened!:D

(Woo Hoo for you, Sherry!:cool: :cool: )

[Shadow]

Wow, Sherry and Carol, what fantastic results :D :D :D!

Stevie - Hope you're hanging in there and have some good news to report too :)!

Had a great day and it was all centered around a walk and being outside. The walk itself was only 1.6 miles with our dog, but it was just beautiful and just so much fun. Spent the rest of the day planting flowers, so the Polly dog, the Gabster and me are all going to be pooped tonight!:lol:
