well I up to 10 miles. I ran 1 today and walked 1. I am going to the gym later to get a little workout and hope to do a few more miles when I get back home. I am trying to catch up to everyone and go a bit faster then what I was doing.

Morning all! Got in 3.9 miles yesterday, 2 the day before (just guessing-no pedometer, but it had to be at least 2, for a total so far of 19.4 miles. Am I correct in thinking that I am tabulating properly--i.e., wearing the pedometer all day, and counting all my steps, not just those when I take my morning or evening walk? Hope everyone is doing well.

Susan, sounds like you are doing great! I need a pedometer then I could be able to post more miles than I have been doing. That's a great idea. :)

I rolled my pedometer over last night
I was marching in place in front of the TV, "watching" the radio and listening to the Mountaineer game (we seriously whipped up on U.Conn) when I knew I was approaching 100,000. I was even excited for some reason. Must have thought bells and whistles would go off and confetti would drop from the ceiling :hat: :gift: , but all it did was roll over and start over. I looked down and saw a lonely old number three. :?: Very anticlimactic. But I'm still moving. My miles are up to 29.4. That's way short of where I'm supposed to be, but I'm really trying. I may have trouble keeping track now that it's over 100,000. I guess that makes it 103,512 steps. Deep breath turtle, I know you didn't know math would be involved, but you CAN do this.
I feel really bad (and guilty) about not going to the track last night. It was raining. I have an umbrella, :rain: I have a poncho, but I didn't have the drive to get out in the rain and dark of night to do it. Soon I'll be using the excuse that there's too much snow on the track. LOL. Move Turtle, MOVE!:drill: |
Uh-oh, I'm falling behind. Being sick is definitely not good for racking up miles!
Excuses, excuses! Yesterday I got in 1.27 pathetic little miles. But there will be more to come, I promise. I'm going to do this 100 miles thing, really I am! |
I don't have being sick as an excuse. I'm just plain lazy... I am walking today though.
;) Donna |
Way to go Mary, on flipping that pedometer! Kick Patootie!!!!!
I'm just under 15 miles now, and that is flat out pathetic. Maybe I should walk to the training class the first day, to make up the training. I'll have to leave Saturday morning to make it, and walk non-stop. LOL. Nenner, nenner, I got 100 miles in in ONE weekend- now get the oxygen! ;) I know next week I'll be waaay behind, so I have to find a way to get a bunch of extra activity in this weekend. More side steps by the stove....marching in place while I fold laundry....maybe I should put clothes away 1 piece at a time....take it from the dryer, walk down the hall, up 12 steps, into our room, put it away, go back downstairs, get the next piece... I think hubby would have me committed if he saw that. he already thinks I'm a little wacky at the moment. :( Lunch is over...gotta go back & pretend to be productive. |
Donna.........could you please, please, jog your 1.8 miles today????? Please???? I'll do my 1.8 miles if you will...LOL!!!! Come on, help your weekend buddy!!!!! Donna, this $9 pedometer from Wal-Mart has been terrific...its really neat.
Jennifer - I have been doing that wacky stuff....marching, etc.... I have looked like a total idiot!!! Come on...join me in looking like a fool!!!! :) |
Ok, again today I'm logging pathetic mileage... 1.23. But there was a lot of playing with the puppy today (went to visit Grandma), so that has to count for something. Ok, finally going to update my totals now, it's been a few days.

I'm not logging my steps that I walked everyday, just that which I exercised! So I could probably be close to 100 by now... ;) I swear I walk 5 miles at work every day! REally! How many miles is 400 ft x 50??? I know I walk at least 400ft at least 10 times day...OK, so 8000 ft. was a bit of an exxageration, but hey...I don't have a pedometer, so it could be much, much more!!!
Tonight I walked 1.5 miles after I got home from my very hectic day at 9pm!! So I am proud of myself! Next month, I'm getting a pedometer, so I can keep up with all of you! You all are doing great! |
:sorry: no exercise today except for the miles I walked in the grocery store this evening! LOL Tomorrow will be a better day for walking. :) ;) Julie, don't worry you won't have to worry about keeping up with me! LOL

Donna, getting a pedometer makes all the difference. When I see I am close to my 10,000 steps, I just walk in place until I get there.
My sister has found the trick is to make all her phone calls while wearing her sweats, she just fast walks in place while she gabs. Did 4.2 miles yesterday, for a total of? 23 something? Hope everyone has a great walking weekend. I am hoping for good weather so I can get in 2 long walks. ARtmaker |
Hello Chick-er-roos
I'm only up to 33.7 today. I woke up feeling like I may be coming down with a cold, but I'm simply "NOT HAVING IT!" A friend sent me a tape of a pay per view Barenaked Ladies concert last night. It was from 1999, but it was AWESOME! But, even though I paced tight circles, marched in place and did sidesteps, for the remainder of the evening, watching it took a lot of time (pausing for calls) so I didn't do very well on my steps. I'll do better today, if I can. I'll be working alone tonight and if it's slow and quiet enough, I'll "step" as much as I can.

well I did run 1 mile yesterday and walked 2. today I plan on running 2 and walking atleast 3 but no guarantee. If I do that then I will be up to 18 miles so I will try my best to do most of that.
|
Ok, so the month's about half over, that means we should be getting close to 50 miles, right? Anyone there yet? Anyone?
I added 3.84 miles today. Yay! Once I get back into exercising, and back to work, I'm sure it will be no problem. I still haven't managed to crack the 10,000 steps yet. Maybe I should just try that instead of counting miles for a day. That can be my goal for tomorrow... 10,000 steps. And lots of water. Wish me luck! ~Elisha |
