Walking Challenge
I have been using the Walking Forum as my own personal space to log my walking goals. I have decided to expand a little and issue a challenge to all the walkers in OH land.
HOW IT WORKS
Set a goal in minutes or miles for the month of February. Every time you walk, go to the walking forum and log it. At the end of the month see if you reached your goal. It is that simple!
EXAMPLE
I will walk 10 hours in the month of February.
or
I will walk 25 miles in the month of February.
These can be any type of walks - around the neighborhood, the track, treadmill, mall walks, Walk Away the Pound videos, what ever. But they do need to be walks, not exercise in general.
Come on, let's get out there and walk!

Great idea!
My husband and I love to walk. I have started keeping track of the minutes we walk since my employer give me a "point" for every 100 minutes of aerobic activity (brisk walking is listed in that category). These points accumulate each month and we can get cool prizes like pedometers, water bottles, t-shirts, etc. It is worth the time and energy to keep track of it and it gives me quite the sense of accomplishment. For January I logged 850 minutes. My goal for February is to log even more. It is also nice to have a walking partner.
Take care
