Can I join in? I'm just starting up again after having a baby 12 weeks ago. I just got a Leslie Sansone Walk the Walk DVD yesterday so I'm ready to get moving!

My goal for July will be 50 miles. :)

Good morning walking buddies!

I had a nice 4 mile walk this morning putting me at 17 for the month.

My 5K went very well. I think my time was 28:57. I was expecting it to be around 33, so I'm very happy with that. Heck, I'm just happy I ran the whole thing.

Genesis-What an awesome goal!!!!! I am in awe.

Have a wonderful day!

Hi everyone! Just back from a weekend away.

I missed my goal of 75 miles last month, so I'm going to try again.

July goal: 75
Miles walked: 12
Miles to go: 63

Genesis 07-05-2006 08:06 PM

July goal = 114 miles
Miles walked = 18.5
Miles to go = 95.5

I managed 8.5 miles on the treadmill today...but man oh man that's booooring! I was aiming for 10 miles, but when my hubby called and said he was on his way home, that was all I needed to throw in the towel and jump in the shower. I find it so mentally difficult doing anything more than 5 miles on a treadmill. Maybe I need to change my attitude. Let's seee....Gee, I love treadmills! Maybe I'll walk 20 miles on the treadmill tomorrow!!!! Yeah right!

Brandy, that's a GREAT time for your first 5k. AWESOME JOB!!!!!!!!! After the 3-Day in October I might try running again. After you have a few 5ks under your belt, do you think you'll try a 10k?

Morning everyone.

Got another 4 miles in this morning. It was nice and cool for a change.

Miles walked=21
Miles to go=59

Genesis-I agree on the treadmill being boring. I cant do more than an hour on them before I'm ready to lose it. Lucky for me Michigan is cooler than Florida. I'm not sure about a 10K. I've only been running for 6 weeks and I need to see how my ankle holds up over time. If my body can do it, I'll probably try a 10K, but it wont be til next spring I imagine.

I am falling SO behind! First, it was the camping trip, then yesterday I had an all-day class. I have another one on Monday, too. I need to do 6 miles today to catch up for the month (if I average 2.6 miles a day, I'll get my 80 miles by the end of the month).

You guys are doing GREAT!! KEEP UP THE HARD WORK!!!

Everybody is doing a great job this month!!!! I'm impressed! I just returned from 6 miles in the mid-day Florida heat. I literally have sweat pouring down my body (ewwww -gross!). Time for a shower!!!!

I did the first day of Couch to 5K today!! I ended up with 2.25 miles in 41 minutes on the treadmill. I'm still behind where I'd like to be at this point in the month, but I'm making progress.

Keep Walking!

I walked a mile around town on Friday with DD (16 lbs) in a front-pack carrier. :) And tonight I did my 2-mile Walk the Walk DVD. Great workout to get me back into the swing of things!

Michele L 07-09-2006 06:47 PM

Today I did a total of 4 miles of WATP: Booster Mile with stretchie, Morning with 3 pound weights, and Two Mile Walk (done in 25 minutes)!

I'm still a bit behind, but feeling good about my progress. Tomorrow is another all-day class, but it's my last one before I go back to work on August 16. Of course, before that I have 10 days of vacation--all that driving and camping--how will I ever get my walks in????


Have a great evening!

Michele :wave:
