#FitReaders: Weekly Check-in Jul 28

 

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









 

So I challenged myself to walk a minimum of 100 miles this month – and while the month isn’t quite over, I’m psyched that I already hit the goal as of Friday!!! And to think, I wasn’t even training for a race 😉  I think this is something that I will definitely do again, though not next month as I will be away one week and won’t be doing much that week. I like having a goal to work towards!

This time next week, I’ll be on vacation – a week at the beach is just what I need  – sun, the sand and some R&R!!! Because of this, my next check-in will be in 2 weeks 🙂

 

 

July Goals: 

  • 10K steps M-F, at least 7,500 steps on the weekend  – 5/5, 1/2
  • 30 minutes of active walking every day, M-F – 5/5 (thank goodness for having to walk the dogs everyday!)
  • Strength training (3/5 days) – Met
  • Eat
    mindfully/eat enough – Yes

    Looks like a great week and awesome month. When you said you had a goal of 100 miles – is that active walking miles or just "overall daily" miles? Impressive! I haven't thought about looking at my total miles for the month.

      100 active miles! I have no idea what my overall daily miles are, but it is definitely higher considering I have the 2 dogs and take them out multiple times a day 😉

    Oops… I think Coco (one of my new kittens) just deleted my comment before it posted… Oh well. I did want to know if your 100 miles is active miles or daily miles. Impressive!
