It was so nice outside today. Walked my son to his doctor's appoint and I felt fine. Hope to get in some great walking this month especially since school should be starting soon.

20 minutes

Thanks so much Shelley, been taking it slower then I want. I would like to get into all the exercise I was getting in each day but one thing at a time. I was able to walk to the grocery store and got in 10 minutes yesterday. Nice to get out and get some fresh air.
August:
30 minutes

Walked to the grocery store today too. Was nice, the kids enjoyed a donut with dh before we started our errands. Not the healthiest treat but they are kids and it is nice to spoil them and their tummies every once in awhile.
August:
40 minutes

I put in 4 miles today. Not as hot as it's been. 87 degrees never felt this good! But, I too did STBO

I'll have to pick up a pedometer when I'm in town the next time. But, I'm still doing my circles around town. Just have to wait until the sun goes behind the mountain cause it's just too damned hot to do it until then. Can't even take my dogs out...that would be cruel.

Hey Donna,
Good to see you here in our little walking thread. You know, a pedometer isn't mandatory...but it is inspiring to see those miles clicking off...LOL.
IT's so hot here, I am now being forced to go to the gym and do the treadmill and stairmaster. I still STBO at the gym, but it's better than being outdoors when it's 103-104 degrees...ugh.

went to the gym today; did 60 minutes of extreme treadmill. STBO!!!

happy trails!
Shelley

Did my walking last night, but I have to admit I cut it short by 1 block. It was sooo hot that I was afraid I was going to pass out! Getting a little light headed, ya know? But, I did the best I could. It's hot today too, so I'll go a little later tonight, I think.

I know the pedometer isn't mandatory, but I think it would be fun. Dh figures I could get one at WalMart.

I recommend getting one that closes up/has a cover so you don't accidentally reset it like I used to do ALL THE TIME before I found one that closed.

Donna,
This is the one I got...it's pretty neat and supposed to be one of the most accurate and user friendly ones on the market.
