A couple of walks yesterday!

I went out for an early walk yesterday morning.I was actually going to have a day off but woke up and looked at the weather forecast and thought hmmm .... Will be another hot one so jumped out of bed and went for an early walk of 5000 steps before the heat hit .

I tend to burn quite easily so stay out of the mid day sun but by early afternoon I wanted to get more steps in and didn't really want to wait until evening so decided to do it on the treadmill ,

It was actually quite pleasant with a nice cooling fan on .

So daily steps up to 11,190

The picture was taken on the morning walk .

Today was started with completing week 4 on my C25K re run

Feeling good !

Happy walking/running πŸ™‚

Love your dedication to getting out and walking Ian! You’re making great progress with your re-runs πŸ‘

I had a nice lie in this morning and as it’s too warm for me to go out I’m just gonna do 30mins elliptical instead later on.

Happy Thursday to you! Hope you have a great day πŸ™πŸ€—

11,190 steps a day Ian, congratulations, I usually do that on my winter walks, perhaps a 10K run is also around that many steps as well, well done on completing week 4 of C25K.

That's fantastic, well done! I'm not getting as many steps in as I'd like because of the heat. Unfortunately I don't have a treadmill - not that I'd have the space for it since we moved into our little rented cottage! I need to work on getting up earlier. It used tobe easier when we lived by the sea, the seagulls made sure I was awake at dawn! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚Week 4 of c25k already! Yay πŸ’ͺπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

That’s a lot of steps and mileage. You should have joined the 1000 mile challenge walk, you would be quite a part of the way by now. πŸ‘πŸ˜Š

To be honest, it's taking quite a lot of determination some days 😁And I'm already over 10,000 for today 😁

You’re doing well. I’m listening to a podcast walking is fitness, this guy just speaks about walking for 10 mins and he walks every day for years, it’s quite interesting. I go further than the 10 min walks.
