Well done for coming on here and starting (?) / progressing (?) on your walking journey. You’ve probably seen the Active10 app? (Link is below all these messages or to the right).

It’s a great way to start adding walking into your daily routine.

And at the moment we have a daily 12 minute walk challenge, so feel free to join us!

There are also some forums dedicated to nutrition and loosing weight, which might be able to better advise on diets and nutrition.

Once I get back from work I’ll pull some links together for you, but for now:

WELCOME!

And reporting ones’ walks back here on the forum has helped many walkers stay motivated. So feel free to let us know how you get on!

Finally back from work, so here are a few links that hopefully provide some inspiration for becoming (even) more active:

* Themed Folder: we have themed folders of all sorts of topics all around walking, so feel free to have a browse healthunlocked.com/active10...

* Active10 App and NHS info around walking, with link to the app at nhs.uk/live-well/exercise/r...

* Current Challenges: we have two current challenges active here:

1) a photo challenge that always goes mid month to mid month healthunlocked.com/active10...

2) a theme challenge healthunlocked.com/active10...

So let us know how you get on!
