Cool, congrats! I think my Garmin site used to give me badges, but I'm hardly ever on the site.

Fell well short of my goal again. I think 5000 steps/day is a bit too adventurous while I'm off work, but I'm going to keep that for May. With improved weather, I'll be able to get out more. The weather has been awful here and I've been stuck in the house. I lost my umbrella and I don't have good rain boots or a coat, and I'd rather not spend the money while I'm laid off. Yesterday is a good example: we got a break in the rain long enough that I could walk to the further-away grocery store about a 15 min walk away, but I still didn't hit 5000. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Slightly better than last month's stats. My total step count was 347,965, averaging 11,598 steps a day, total mileage 160.47, averaging 5.35 miles a day.

It's hard to walk outside if the weather's bad, but hopefully it will start to improve in May. In the meantime, have you thought about doing an online walking workout instead?


Well done to everyone who walked with me this month

May's challenge is here. Hope you'll join me! 🚶 🚶 🚶

Almost but not quite. Still, I'm satisfied with my progress as I'd increased the target over previous months. Go Me


I'm a big fan of in-home walking and Leslie Sansone's videos are a lot of fun. Another one I like is this 30-minute low impact walk by Jessica Smith. Like Leslie, her choreography is uncomplicated but effective (I have two left feet, so anything fancy dance-y is out of the question ). Her dog Peanut comes along for the walk too .. by sleeping, yawning and rolling over .

See you all in May
