Yesterday I walked (very fast) to and from the library (about 90 minutes total).

It is so beautiful out today that I'm planning on running everywhere-- to get my nails and from there to Marshalls. Not sure how far it is so I'll see what I get done but I can always walk if I need to...

For May:
Workouts:

1 day
90 minutes
