Around the World in 80 Days - Please post your kms/miles/steps for Tuesday 19 January

199 Replies

Dear Travellers,

I thought you may be interested in our route and where we are heading next. As you see from the map, this leg of the journey to Hong Kong takes us through and near to SE Asia countries including Thailand and the Philippines. I hope everyone has packed at least two sets of swimwear!

We are now on Day 25. Yesterday we have already exceeded our daily target of 501 kms. With travellers still to check in, we are now at 577kms. I'll say it again, we are amazing and you are amazing. Together we can achieve so much.

After all of the excitement of tiger safaris and elephant rides and Bollywood dancing, this is our rest day. Time to recharge our batteries by relaxing on the sun loungers, taking a dip in the pool and having a few pampering sessions. Tonight there will be a Jazz band playing some funky music and the cocktail bar is once again serving your favourite cocktails.

I haven't quite got home yet so no kms recorded for me. How did everyone else do?

Happy Travels :) :)

Oooh, swimming in the Philippines and Thailand sound fabulous and I can hardly wait to get to Hong Kong, these are places I have always wanted to visit!

Today, I worked out extra hard because I have a difficult day tomorrow and may not get many Kms in.

I did 17.66kms - my best ever so far!

Hi all :)

I'm loving the map Lizzy and am absolutely blown away by what we've achieved! We are awesome! Phileas Fogg had nothing on us! :)

That's an impressive number of kms Moreless! Hope you're all endorphined up from all that pedalling. I get a lot out of my system pedalling hard on my way home (all the harder when it's as freezing as it was today!) :)

There are some big hitters but not every day produces the same result. We need every traveller to check-in/post kms every single day because every single km counts.

And your number is great 😃😃

4.5 km for me today. Took my 12 year old for first gym session so more testing machines than exercising! Hope she'll keep at it and I can up my kms x

You're not a cocktail lover then Mimsta :)

in reply to moreless

MMMMmmmm g&t is a highball cocktail. Prefer Sipsmith and Fever tree low calorie tonic, lots of ice, wedge of lime mmmMMM but haven't had one since starting the 12week plan. I'm saving myself for the end of week 12! 🍸🍸🤐

19.16kms of cycling today, and can I have extra points for below freezing temperatures please. My toes and fingers were unhappy! The map is amazing Lizzy, can't believe how far we've come. I think it's probably a good point for me to look into taking swimming lessons...

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to

It is pretty chilly when you're whizzing around, isn't it Ruth? Not that I'm an expert, only having been outside twice on my bike. so far :D

Both my kids learnt to swim in HK Ruth, so maybe that's the perfect place for us to teach you :)

That's a humungous number of K's you've clocked today! :D

in reply to moreless

I'm not kidding though - I am seriously considering learning to swim. There's a possibility of a trip to Greece in the summer (I haven't been abroad for several years so this is big news in my world) - I'm thinking if we're going to be on an island then maybe it would just be rude not to go in the water a bit :)

Fitforit75 profile image
Fitforit75 in reply to

I'm a really weak swimmer :/ would love to be better but would need a private empty pool and an instructor with poor eyesight! Jog-on keeps threatening to do a triathlon but he's not a great swimmer either.. (And resembles a dark furred yeti) so we'd need the same instructor ;)

in reply to Fitforit75

I need the poor eyesight too - I'm terrified of wearing only a swimming costume. But it feels like a hurdle I need to cross so I think it needs to be done at some point - that and wearing shorts - showing my bare glowing milky white legs that have never ever seen the sun! :)

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to Fitforit75

I have brand new swimming costumes in sizes 16, 18 and 20 and have never plucked up the courage to wear any of them! :)

Get em sent to charity woman - you'll be rocking a size 10 by the end of your weight loss journey :) x

skinnylizzie profile image
skinnylizzie in reply to moreless

I have the rest of the sizes 18, 16, 14, 12 sorry no 10 so we should be able to cater for all those who have 'forgotton' them otherwise they will have to wear birthday suits!

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to

It's never to late to learn and sea water is much more buoyant than fresh water. It'll be lovely and warm in Greece too. In fact, it'll be so warm, you'll be glad of the opportunity for a dip :)

in reply to moreless

Mmmm.... warmth... can't remember what that's like!

in reply to

I think this is another amazing post :-) I remember Ruth a while ago suggesting rowing to you, and you said that you couldn't swim weren't confident about getting in a swimming costume ! I think it's fab how much people's attitudes and confidence change during a weight loss journey :-)

Well I'm clocking in at 9.27kms today and guess what, my new pedometer arrived in time for my afternoon doggie walk and it appears to be similar to my pacer in accuracy. I can't wait to try it out properly tomorrow. I won't be joining you for cocktails as I'm trying to be good but will enjoy the jazz band. Bring in on!

morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to Bu-dog

Lucky you Bu-dog, pedometers and I just don't see eye to eye! :(

Mine would have read 0 instead of 9.27K's until I got into the car and then it would have started to work! :D

Welcome bigalan, from one struggled to another! I am also disabled but have managed to work my way up to around 5k on a good day .... often by just walking around the house in circles but those bad days are hard. You'll enjoy the sun with us and everyone is so lovely that you'll soon feel right at home 😊😊

in reply to Sopmarfree

hi there i try my best at how much i can walk, i have osteoarthritis in my spine, hips, and knees. my knees at the moment at very sore because of the damaged that has been caused through spending 14 years working down the coal mines and my last ten years of work from 1999 to 2009 i was an HGV driver and with keep jumping out of my lorry that's what has caused the most damaged because by then i weighed nearly 28 stone, but my i'm down to 21 stone 10 lb, its helping the pressure on my knees but to late damage already done, so i do what i can, i have a pedometer to count how many steps i do each day and i record them to see what type of day i've had. its nice to been with this group because it gives me joy everyday when i read about what people have done, so thank you very much Alan

Nope not a chance moreless! I would have sat a bit longer on my botty just in a more reclined position!

Nor would I have the night before such a day, gone all out to up my steps in advance!

Hi Lizzie and fellow travellers! Well done to everyone - aren't we doing well!,, Wow I am really in need of a lot of pampering, sunshine and swimming sound great... I'll dream of these instead of freezing cold and working!

I managed 8.9km most of which was after dark and the ground was already frozen... And by the time the dogs were walked and fed it was 7.20 and I didn't feel up to a run as well. So what with that and eating quite a lot today it's a big Oops! From me - sweet dreams everyone!

11.75 miles today. Tuesday is my big walk day with my 79 year old chum. It was sunny and icy with lovely clear blue sky. Walked for 3 hours across Exmoor. Bliss. I'm retired now that's why I have the time. A dip in the pool just what I need.

7.9 km for me (19th)

2 of those on a bike, big achievement as I have not been on a bike since I was 12. Cant say I enjoyed it; obviously not my kind of exercise; but going to persevere as it is using different muscle groups than I usually use with the walking.

Trying other types of exercise so going to try a light jog on the treadmill at the gym on Friday; perhaps I might even attempt the C5k; who knows the thought is there now to put it in practice.....

Looking forward to our swimming have bought a new costume for the occassion :)

Ruth

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to Ruth273

I thought I'd never get used to cycling Ruth, it was really hard going to start with, but I persevered and did a little more every week and can now manage 20K's, if I push it. I've still to try a jog - I'm afraid I'll get a speed wobble on! :D

Is it an itsy, bitsy, teeny, weeny, yellow polka dot bikini? ;)

Great number, btw :D

Well an eventful day and not in a good way. Went off for first walk of day and slipped on black ice and went right over. Adrenaline kicked in and initially felt ok but as day went on, ankle, knee and hip on left side started to ache. Started on the ibuprofen to reduce any swelling. For me having slipped on the ice a number of years ago resulting in a broken spine the slip yesterday brought it all back and have felt very tearful since. Dont want this one slip to deter me going forward. Any way total for yesterday 9.17km but will have to see how today goes in terms of kms as not sure how leg will be.😕

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to Determined71

OMG Determined! I am so sorry you've had this happen to you again! How horrible to have that terrible deja vu experience too.

I'd like you to visualise us all with you, the next time you venture out, holding your hands and supporting you. We'll keep you safe and able to continue on, with confidence :)

That's a fab number, but don't feel you need to push yourself, just take things easy and go at the pace you feel comfortable with.

Keep breathing in the clean, fresh air, as best you can and fingers crossed for a speedy recovery.

You're still managing great numbers though, so well done you for not letting this get you down! :)

😃 I've not always been this positive it's taken a lot of hard work and bumps along the way to be this positive but it's all been well worth while 😀

I wish you a lovely day 😃

Colds really are the pits, aren't they Carpo! I'm just waiting to be struck down by one myself, as the OH is sniffling all over the place :)

You still managed a great number though :)

17.14km for yesterday

Another 13:48 miles, it may be it for the week it is so cold on the bike, just so glad we can stop and try out the sun loungers. If you go via Singapore I'll drop off for a couple of months.

Wow! Fantastic number granddad! :)

Here's a tip, get a stand for your bike, which essentially turns it into an exercise bike. Mine's a godsend for this time of the year :)

Thought I'd sent km for Tues but can't see my post (possibly an age thing). Think it was 5.9k but can't check as pedometer reset for today!

morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to Mrscaw

Or it could be a site glitch Mrscaw, there are a lot of them about at the moment.

We shall trust your memory for that great number :)

So we'll be quickstepping around to Midnight in Tokyo with Kenny Ball. Get practising slow slow quick quick slow, No rest for the wicked! Get off your sunlounger its a great number, before you have too many of those cocktails!

Well yesterday I went dancing in the afternoon and puffing away at sax in evening so not too many steps 5789 but lots of effort ,Oh and I forgot practised the hula hoop, can only go one way! Tell moreless it isn't as easy as you think so doing it to the right easy, reversing ,falls straight onto floor bruising me on way down!!

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to skinnylizzie

I'm here Lizzy and I can't work my hoop either way! I think I'm cack handed, because I can't work out which way to start twisting it. I have a problem by not having a dominant hand, except for writing. I've got the bruises to prove it too! :D

I think that's a lot of steps, so well done you :)

skinnylizzie in reply to moreless

Just tried again . 1min to right, lots of bruises to left!! Trying not to incur any other injuries so plan on increasing slowly to the right! did think about the rowing contraption in argos by Davina but I think they have all gone as it wouldn't put it my basket! might be easier than hula hooping and useful in the sea if needed, hopefully for pleasure and not in necessity!!

morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to skinnylizzie

Hahahahaha, great minds think alike! I've been looking at rowing machines today too! I was hoping to be able to get one from Tescos with clubcard vouchers, but the reasonably priced ones don't give your distance travelled.

The one I was looking at is like the pineapple pilates one on amazon about £10

morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to skinnylizzie

Ooh, I've never seen one of those, I must have a look! Thanks for the tip :)

in reply to moreless

I've just got a mini stepper (well, its going back because it was damaged - but new one comes tomorrow !).

amazon.co.uk/Ultrasport-Swi...

I wanted something that would help strengthen my legs on non-running days and perhaps give a bit of arm exercise as well - and it will hide away quite well when not being used. I worked out how many steps I would have to do to complete 1k and it's definitely not going to be adding anything significant to my km total each day :-O

morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to

It looks like a really nifty gadget Lucca and great for stowing away. My concern would be falling off! My sense of balance is really naff!! :D

in reply to moreless

:-) I was a bit worried about that as well, as it's nothing to hold onto. However, I had a little go on it before it got put back into it's box to be returned (although not with the ropes), and it's not as bad as I thought. Perhaps once I get some speed up (ha ha !!) I might change my mind :-O

Hi Lizzy & Everyone,

Sorry to be posting this late, but my result for Tuesday 19th January 2016 (yesterday) is 0.45km walking. i.e. nearly half a km, but not quite.

I love the map! Great to see our progress.
