Here are some things that count for miles.

 

These are as you can count them, 1 mile will = one mile.

 

Biking, swiming, walking, and such.

 

*********

 

These will be counted as 1 hour = one mile

 

 

*********

 

will be down and up 10 times = one mile

 

********

 

These two willl be 30 minutes = one mile

 

weights, jumping rope.

You will have to be the judge of these. We have been counting 1 hour as a mile, but, sometimes it isn't so. Therefore, I'm letting you be the judge of these.

Last week, October 7 -13, I am going to say with laundry, stairs, shopping, housework, dishes and all, I got in about 16 miles, I did walk on the treadmill and I biked one day last week. But, I need to do it at least 3 days a week. Not sure if I will this week as my sinuses are really bad this morning. Was nice these past 2 days and we were outside a lot trying to get some stuff done around here.

 

Ok, who will be ???

Who is going to join us? Anyone who wants to start exercising or walking or whatever, count your miles and add them up this week and post them next week when either Momo or I make the walking post.

Excellent job, Snowmom. I enjoy seeing your miles go up. You and Momo inspire me to keep on trying.

 

I went back to last weeks thread to recall how many miles I did;

 

This week, shooting 1/2 mile, walked to the post office 1 mile, and strength training exercises, 1/2 mile so far.

 

Walked to the PO again. . house cleaning, 4 hours.

 

2 miles to the PO.

1/2 mile Monday

Strength training, 1 mile

"1 hour as a mile"; 4 miles

 

 

7 1/2 Miles!!!!!

Annarchy, you are really doing so good.

 

I know I won't get so many miles this next week since I just am not feeling to well. This sinus is really getting to me. I spent a lot of the morning yesterday in bed, and we go out to lunch with a group of friends today, so won't be going down to walk today either. Just maybe I will feel up to it tomorrow.

 

Thanks so much, now you are inspiring me too.

Annarchy and Snowy are just running ahead of me! I'll never catch up.

I've been bad about exercising like I should, so today I walked 4 miles along the canal. Beautiful afternoon - I'm so glad I took the time!

[Annarchy]

(((((((Snowmom)))))))) Hope you feel better soon.

 

Awwww, Momo, don't feel bad. You will get back into the swing, I have faith in you. Plus, I have slowed down, giving you a chance to catch up.

 

Congratulations Andrea, a 4 mile walk!!! Fantastic! When I walk a continuous mile and it nearly knocks me on my duff for the day.

 

Last week, was a mess. I tried to do as much as possible, but with this pulled muscle (or scar tissue) in my tummy, I could not do a fraction of what I was doing. Even coughing hurt.

Then, I had to go to TX. That's 6 hours on the road one way doing nothing. MIL tries to keep me from doing anything, she says I am a tornado, won't sit still for 2 seconds. LOL. So, I sat and worked on basting pieces for the quilt I am working on. (No miles there.) I finally got away with trying to level out FIL's old garden and moving the sand around to the mulberry trees roots which were showing. 4 hours moving sand, maybe 2 miles. I took my time and did little shovel and wheelbarrow loads. -Deep knee bends -

It is a gorgeous day for walking today. Cool enough where you don't have to worry about a heatstroke!
