Longer walk planned for tomorrow

[JOPAT111]

Going to up by a mile😊 7 miles planned. Had a day of present music playing so tomorrow I'm going back to childhood and when I became a little raver haha

80's & 90,s.

I wonder what music gets your heart pumping? ❤️

Hi if youre up for pledging an increase in your miles, our Summer Challenge will be starting on 26th and you could pledge to do it in the 10 weeks ? x

Oh fab I'll try and remember (terrible memory🤔) hopefully by then I'll be able to pledge mileage for 5 mornings a week😊

[Lytham 3 stone in reply to JOPAT111]

You can find all challenges in Pinned Posts. I recommend joining a weekly weigh in on the day of your choice.

These posts explain about the weigh ins and will help you locate Pinned Posts and Events

Thank you very much. I got the newbie info pack, still on the learning curve, though.

I am in the Sunday weigh-in group.

[BridgeGirl Administrator 2 stone in reply to Elisabeth3]

Great! Keep referring back to the newbie pack and all will fall into place if you come here regularly, as I can see you are doing

[Lytham 3 stone in reply to Elisabeth3]

Great, see you then if not before ! x

I never walked / jogged with music. But they say it's good. I will try, though... Does it not distract you?

Not really into music, as there is so much of it around, radio, shop, etc.

[JOPAT111 in reply to Elisabeth3]

I love walking to my music, the beat changes which makes me walk quicker than slower. Walking into town and back home is 6 miles, that's when the music's on. As I've just started again I'm finding my pace, But next week I'll start timing the routes I take and when the Challenge starts I'll know what I want to go for😊

[Elisabeth3 Maintainer in reply to JOPAT111]

Sounds great. I will try music this week. Let's see, it may work for me, too.

[JOPAT111 in reply to Elisabeth3]

Maybe pick music that holds happy memories for you, I always sing louder and shake my booty more when a song reminds me of happier times. Like I said yesterday to another member I must look like a fruit loop sometimes when I'm waiting to cross the road dancing on the curb haha💃

[Elisabeth3 Maintainer in reply to JOPAT111]

Hm. I don't really have the patience to look for music. This is probably like other things, you have to 'learn' how to look for your music. I will try some very easy ways...

[JOPAT111 in reply to Elisabeth3]

If I walk without music, I find myself strolling as my mind ticks over and I don't feel like I've done any exercise. As long as you enjoy your walks that's all that really matters
