A ex work colleague mentioned this challenge to me over Christmas - and of course I mocked him - my default setting when exercise is mentioned , he had done it in 2017 and he thought I should do it - I mocked further ! and then thought - hang on ! - that's only about 3 miles a day - I do that walking the dog ! . I accepted the challenge and borrowed a pedometer , which proved to complicated for my techno challenged brain , so I ordered my own simpler version . This meant I have started a month late so I have to walk on average 3 miles a day - not very far - but It's each and every day and I'm not wearing the pedometer whilst I'm in the house or walking around to the shop , only when I'm actually walking he dog . The main thing is - I GET TO WEAR A BADGE ! . I will up date my millage every week or so and we will see how I do ! .
Walk On!
ReplyDeleteWell amble really .
DeleteWell done!
ReplyDeleteI am tempted to sign up for this myself...
Think it's doable .
DeleteAgreed. The Grand Duchess bought me a pedometer two years ago, and I've never used it. Also very tempted to try this myself. In the meantime, walk on as Ross mentioned above.

The trick is I'm told is be consistent and do the mileage every day or a little more and use the miles extra as a backup .
DeleteGood Luck!
ReplyDeleteThank you may need it , early days yet .
DeleteAlways an issue with a "sit down with a nice cup of tea" sedentary hobby. Best of luck with this challenge. Henry Hyde has been doing some exercise videos for sedentary gamers.
ReplyDeleteOur dog is a major factor in my exercise plan ! .
DeleteLook forward to seeing your mileage clock up ...... is there a facility to add a mileometer to the blog?
ReplyDeleteWill be doing it weekly (?) and it will appear under the banner on the right column - stands at 19.5 at the moment from the five days since I started.
DeleteThanks may need it .
