July goal = 114 miles
Miles walked = 91
Miles to go = 23

Yesterday (Monday) I was too tired from my over-active weekend and couldn't muster the energy for a walk. However, I'm meeting my training partner at 6:15pm tonight for a walk, so no excuses today!

Here's my plan for the rest of the month...

Tuesday - 11 miles
Wednesday - cross train + 3 miles
Thursday - 6 miles
Friday - 3 miles
Saturday - Day off for birthday!
Sunday - Swim in the ocean!
Monday - I'll be flying for work all day, so no planned exercise

If I follow this plan, I'll meet my miles for the month. And, since I have a lot of wiggle room in the schedule, I can always make up miles over the weekend if I don't meet my mileage goals over the next three days.

Keep up the great work everybody and start thinking about your August goals!!!!

Hi everyone! Been too crazy busy to drop by lately. Been doing my usual 2 - 3 mile walks and then did a training walk for the Breast Cancer Walk on Sunday. I learned that walking past the 10 mile point gives me sore hips! So it looks like I need to be really working on those longer walks.

July goal: 75
Miles walked: 55
Miles to go: 20

Good afternoon all~ I had to recount my miles this morning. I discovered I'd forgotten to add a day's miles. It's kinda nice to have to revise the miles upward- so long as the scale isn't going upward too!

Date- 7/25
Miles- 4.2
Miles so far- 62.5
Overage (YAY!)- 2.5

Can't remember the last time I was here--it's probably been a week. I've been doing about 2 miles a day most days. Yesterday, I did 4.13 miles betweeen 3 different 1 mile WATP's and 1.13 miles on the treadmill. Hoping for a similar workout today.

July 23: 2 mile WATP for abs
July 24: Walk & Kick (2 miles)
July 25: Power Mile, Morning Mile and Muscle Mile all with 3 pound weights PLUS 20 minutes (1.13 miles) on treadmill

Happy walking!

Michele

Welcome back, ladies!!!! So nice to see a few more faces around here!

My training partner bailed on me last night, so I ended up doing 11 miles solo. I walked 1.5 miles from my house to this lake in my neighborhood, which has a 0.9 mile path around it. 9 laps around the lake plus the 3 mile round trip walk to and from my house equals about 11 miles.

July goal = 114 miles
Miles walked = 102
Miles to go = 12

My training partner and I are now supposed to meet on Thursday night for a long walk. I'm going to try for 12 miles Thursday night to bring me to my July mileage goal of 114 miles!!!!

KEEP ON WALKING, LADIES!!!!!

I just finished the 5 mile WATP, which puts me less than 3 miles from my goal!

Way to go, Genesis, on reaching yours!


Happy walking!

Hi gals-I made my goal plus 2 miles! I'm setting the same goal for August and crossing my fingers since it'll be a busy month for me.

Great job to all of you!!!!

Thanks, Genesis! I DID reach my goal this morning by doing the 3 mile Express! Then I went shopping with DS to get the rest of the things we need before we leave for vacation on Wed. I already have more than 14000 steps and it's not even 5pm!

Have a great week, everyone! Keep walking!

Michele
