#25DayChallenge: look at that, I keep on walking ….

… this is the longest streak of everyday walks I’ve done since lockdowns! What-da-ya-know! I’m a Walker!

My inner clock has not reset yet, so I’m early up, early pre-lunch-walk out. And it fits with the weather, so all good. I’m also early to bed, so I’m not missing anything.

Walked to a little bridge with a stream, contemplating of how much I need that little outing now in my day!

And I’ve also put together an exciting treadmill walking plan for me to get used to that permanent 3% incline that I set Treaddy (my new toy, a treadmill) to! I feel it every time I’m on it, so I thought I’d better have a plan! (Only alternative was to set it to 0%, so 3% sounded like a good plan to get my hill sprints in! 🗻🧗🏿‍♂️🏞️🚠😂🤣)

For those interested in treadmill walks, I will probably share it soon on our S&F forum (healthunlocked.com/strength.... I thought it might fit better over there, as it will also include the use of an aerobic step, and some workout buddies might need to go to a gym to get access to a treadmill. Additionally, I realised that the Active10 app will not work with indoor walks at all.

So we are on the almost last day of this challenge!

Well done to everyone who took part!!!

Happy walking!

🍏PLEASE do a complete beginners guide to using a treadmill. Hubby bought me one for icy weather etc but I haven’t even tried it yet! Such a wimp! I absolutely love running & walking at the moment outside! Xx

Well done, you set the challenge and stuck to it. I made 20 days in the end and twice running but not ready to run yet so I'll walk when I can 😃

That’s fabulous! Considering you are still recovering from hospital, this is awesome!

And .. without the iron infusion! How often do you get it?

I don't know, but I haven't had the first one yet, she said I'd need 2, and being so anaemic is why I'm not healing as I should, I'm.still waiting for the appointment but I've chased them up, hopefully soon

Keeping my fingers crossed for you. But even more awesome for you to have kept up walking despite low energy/low iron.
