...already! Filling in the time exercising instead of waiting at home for the plumber...do I get bonus points for multitasking? ha!

You guys have inspired me to make a goal of unintentional exercise! Seriously, I think I'm too sedentary when I'm not exercising...and please don't suggest a fitbit...I don't need another appliance that will just get broken!

Hi Joy Happy New Year!

I don't really have any goals except to get myself moving again. I joined a gym a week or two ago and just went today for the first time. You all that know me know I only hit the treadmill, my favorite.

Best of luck to ALL on your journeys :)

so here goes:

12: 60 minute walk, 3.57 miles, 3.0-3.7 mph, 2.0-6.0 incline
