One Woman Learning to Live Her Best Life

Tuesday, August 28

Well, I’ve not been sticking too well to the WW Walking Challenge schedule. I’ve been walking on each of the days in the schedule, but I’ve generally been walking a bit farther and a bit faster than called for each day. I want to be ready for the 5k in November, so I need to cover a little more ground that it’s calling for each day.

Yesterday, the schedule called for a 1/2 mile walk in 12 minutes. I started out planning to do that because I’d had a VERY long day already, but it just seemed really slow to me. So, I decided to just walk at a reasonable and comfortable pace instead of worrying about the suggested pace. I had actually just gotten into an almost zen/meditative state as I was walking that I completely lost track of the time I’’d been walking until I heard the Disneyland fireworks start going off. I ended up walking 1.3 miles in 25:23.

I’’ve also definitely have an increased awareness of moving more during the day thanks to wearing the pedometer. I got in just over 7000 steps yesterday, so I’m inching ever closer to that 10k steps goal. Saturday was the closest I’’ve come so far. I got in over 8k steps that day, but I was up and moving about a lot longer than normal due to a party that went until around 2am.
