#FitReaders: Weekly Check-in January 6

#FitReaders is hosted by Geeky Bloggers Book Blog  and That’s What I’m Talking About

 

So, January is off to a somewhat good start…I’ve been active everyday, but I’ve also been fighting a cold, so I haven’t really been going crazy with my training for the BIG walk I’m doing in March. I’m not too worried, though, since I have been training since August and have been pretty active all along, despite a few bumps along the way! Plus, I do have the two dogs that keep me moving every day 🙂

 

 

January Goals:

• 10K steps M-F, at least 7,500 steps on the weekend – met
• 30 minutes of active walking every day, M-F – met
• Eat
  mindfully/eat enough (esp. in important while training!) – met

  

My training plan for the Challenge Walk MS I’ll be doing in March of 2017:

• 4 miles, 2 days a week, interval training – did one 4 mile walk and one 3+ mile walk
• Distance walks (distances will vary, try to do 2 days, back-to-back ) – didn’t do this week
• Try to attend one yoga class a week – didn’t make it to class, but did do some yoga one day at home

  

 

Here’s how my last week went: 

  

Dec 31:  942 steps (Fitbit died – we had been away & couldn’t recharge it)
Jan  1:  10,160 steps + 15 minutes Yoga

Jan  2:  14,589 steps 

Jan  3: 17,144 steps (5K+  4.32 Charity Miles for MS)
Jan  4:  11,549 steps

Jan  5:  18,462 steps (5K+ 3.3 Charity Miles for MS)

Jan  6:  13,417 steps 
Total Steps: 86,173 steps

 
 

 

Audiobooks listened to last week (since I’m not much of a music fan, I listen to books while I walk):

• Started The Shadow Sister by Lucinda Riley, narrated by Jessica Preddy

How did your week go? You can find this week’s link-up here.

***In March, I’ll be doing the CHALLENGE WALK MS in Savannah, GA. It is a three-day, 50-mile walk that tests your strength and your
spirit, and makes an extraordinary difference in the lives of people
with MS and their families.
