Tried my new shoes out on my favourite track this morning ;D Spent nearly two hours down there walking and jogging! It was a beautiful morning to be out. I went really early so I could see the sunrise over the ocean :)

How is everyone else going? Jamberie?  ;)

I picked up a free pedometer from an hbf stall on friday.

I dont k ow how accurate it is, but 60 mins in the treadmill walking at 6 with an incline of 6 is over 9,000 steps.

Are we meant to do 10,000 per day?

That sounds about right Hally, I used to use one years ago and would walk for an hour every morning and from memory it used to be around 9000 steps. Back then the recommendation was for 10,000 steps per day not sure if it's still the same.

Yep, 10,000+ steps is a good goal to aim for Hally :D

10,00 steps is not very much ???

By 11am I was just under 13,000 & I still have about 10 or so hours of today left ???

Maybe not for you Hally, but for a lot of the population who drive everywhere and have desk jobs, it is a lot ;)

Actually I walk a lot more than I realise.

Hanging out washing.

I put the basket on the wall, the line is too low, we just havent  got round to adjusting  it. Take one piece of washng out, walk round line & peg wasing on, i do this until the basket  is empty. Sily me ;D

At 2pm I am up to 20,000 steps :)
