I have been doing all my waking in the kitchen to avoid the rotten weather! BUT , yesterday I had to take the car for MOT and walked home, about 4 miles at a brisk pace... and there is a hill! 😂 You keep those waterproof's handy .... I think they will be getting a lot of use! 💧🙄

I've managed to avoid the rain so far but I haven't been able to avoid a bit of paddling about in mud. I suppose I could stick to roads or pavements...but where's the fun in that?

I'm still walking. Up to 105 brisk minutes so far this week. Feeling lucky as twice already I finished my walk in the dry and literally within minutes the rain came bucketing down. It's almost like I planned it.

141 minutes now and again the rain started just as I got home. This is getting a bit weird but I hope it keeps it up ;)

good walking there Slipstick!! I get loads of minutes walking in, just not quick enough. I am not sure how the app measures things? It must be amount of steps/minute. I have to really focus and work on it to get it to work. I am just too laid back. 😂

Yes I concluded it's measuring steps / minute. But I like it, it forces me to get a bit of a move on. Also when the weather's rotten I don't enjoy walking about indoors so I was encouraged to find that the app counts pedalling my exercise bike as walking . Not sure if it's supposed to but to me it's all exercise ;)
