McButterpants 2,846 Posted February 9, 2014 I'm a little sore after the last couple of days exploring San Francisco ON FOOT! We come here every year and usually take cabs or public transportation. Not this time - I've only taken the cable car twice in 9 days and no cabs. I've had two days of 16,000+ steps - back to back days. I'm a little sore today, but feel great. What a great sense of accomplishment when you get to the top of a 2-block climb and look back and say, "Yeah, I kicked that hill's a$$!" My goal was to have every day over 10,000 steps, but missed on day, I was short 1100 steps. My two days over 16,000 make up for that though. That's my justification. :-) Next week starts the real work - need to start with the weights. I've been avoiding that for some reason.... 3 ribearty, Froggy63 and Danni-doinit4me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elliptical Weight Circuit: Legs. 1 day Shingles, ouch. Sorry. Hope you are feeling better. I have gotten in another 7 miles. This weekend is supposed to be warmer so hoping to get out and ride my bike. I need bike miles and definitely prefer outdoor riding as to a stationary bike. Think warm and sun shine.

ribearty 544 Posted February 19, 2014 How is everyone doing with their challenge? I am at 30 miles of walking and 32 with riding. My original goal was 50 walking and 75 riding. I have 20 miles to walk and 43 to ride. I plan on riding again today. We have had a couple days of great weather. It is supposed to rain tomorrow and then turn cold. The remainder of my riding miles will most likely be inside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
