Today I went for a walk - it's the first I have intentially walked in some time. I can't blame it on anything now but being a sloth, but there was a time it was so hot, that I could justify it to a point. But I can no lonter.
Anyway, the little ticker seems to help me along the way. Please note its theme:
- We have no snow
- We have no snow man of any kind... nada.
- But I like the ticker. . . so there.
I have a goal to walk 50 miles by Christmas Day --- will you join me?
I'll have a ticker on the sidebar too.
I need company if you will...
Oh yeah, your goal can be different than mine - I chose one I thought I could actually do and complete. I am not doing anything to push myself.
What a great idea! I've been thinking I need to do this, as much for my mental health as for my physical health. Maybe I will join you. I'll have to think about it.

I won't join you but I certainly will cheer you on! Good Luck!

Ok. I have two big dogs who should be walked at least a mile a day...so, that would be about 30 miles between now and Christmas...I'm game...

I have one young dog who needs several walks a day. But, I don't know how long the blocks are here! Maybe if the spousal pedometer is still working I could have a steps goal. I'll check it out. As it gets colder and (not yet, but surely it's coming) snowier and icier here, it will be a temptation to walk less, so I need a push!

I like the ticker snowperson.
We don't have snow here, ever. It gets very cold and rainly, but never the white stuff. Sad!
Anyhow, the cats were not on the menu, but the little guy did manage to get on the table during the meal.
Keep looking at churches close to you, but no luck yet. It would be fun to have a revgal lunch pal not in the church!

I'll join you for the 50 miles by Christmas challenge. I've not been very consistent with exercise lately

We have gotten snow here exactly twice in the *mumble*grumble*mumble* years I have lived in So. Calif.
I like your ticker. But I don't have time to join you, unless you will count the 16 to 23 times I run up and down the two full flights of stairs in my house.
And P.S. I tagged you.....

You motivated me BIG TIME! I even got to Jazzercise at 5:30 this am!
You can't imagine how GREAT I felt, having walked to and from work yesterday! I'm going to do it again this afternoon! Woohoo! 2 miles a day is a big improvement for me (and Erin mentioned that if I walk 'round the building once for good measure once I arrive, it will really be a mile and not 0.98!
