Taz's Step Challenge


Recommended Posts

OK, so last night I bought my 3rd pedometer in about a week and a half! This time, I bought a 1 year warranty on this bad boy! So i'm in starting in the morning. I don't walk much at work, so this week my goal is to get on the treadmill 3-4 times this week. I have to work late both Tues and Wed night, but all the other nights i'm going to gets some walking in.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!!!

WTG Jann! That is just AWESOME! Goodness me, you are inspiring me to really tread on more!

Yesterday I did 19,689 and today did 19,893. I was close! Also, this is only walking steps I've planned and not the normal, everday walking. I am sure if I added those, I would have gone over 20K both days.

Going to have to find some kind of arm exercises because I don't want to have muscle bird legs and heavy flappy wings!!!

WALK ON!!

Thank you Jann! I have to admit, it gets easier each day I walk. I get sooo poopped out when I get home and then after an hour gone by, I want to do more! I am just so jazz about this whole thing...so weird! OK, it seems as though I need to browse through all of her videos and pick and choose. I noticed you have quite a selection of hers from your previous post above.

HOO RAH...WALK ON!

Hey guys,

So yesterday I passed 15,000 steps walking with my family at the mall (got new clothes finally)... and today... thanks to GREAT weather.. blew past 20,000 steps by going for a serious hike. My calfs are killing me... but it was well worth it.

Here's the proof:

YAY! I did it!

That makes today's total 24K. I didn't include regular walking around because yet again I've lost the damned pedo. I just bought them like two weeks ago, and in pairs no less! Sheesh!

Jann

Awesome Jann! Way to go!!! Breaking it down is an awesome idea. I tackled my 20k today in a single hike... and I think I would have done better doing it in 5 mile spurts.

Again, great job!

All right!!! Great job. Two days of 29K is just amazing. 10 miles a day. How cool is that!!! Way to go!

Thanks so much, Taz! New clothes are a VERY COOL NSV absolutely!

Yup, breaking it out is way easier for sure. The second round you are refreshed, your muscles are warmed and you're good to go again! I could have actually gone a third round but I didn't have the time.

YAY for you! 20K in a single hike! You and Jude totally rock!!

Ya, it was great to get pants that didn't look like I was a white rapper. Still a ways out from getting a pair of Levis 501 button flys (my favorite jeans), but its progress. Went from a 50in waist to a 46. Only 6 more inches till Levis time!!!

Walking in the 10 miles was good. And my wife and I are considering doing that hike on the weekends. The destination was a Starbucks in another neighbourhood, where they make great tea. I think though I will focus more on 3 or 4 5mile events during the week. Just too hard to find the time during the week. Like today I only got 6800 steps in.
