    Epic fail here - late night last night of course, then lunch out, then a longish drive home. Dark and raining by the time we got home. Only option now is to run up and down the stairs a lot.

    Trailingspouse, that's what I did to get to 4 miles!

    Feeling a bit lethargic after New Year celebrations and a 2 0 clock bed time :eek:

    Will make an effort to get out for a walk later and this is also day one of my dry January.

    Ive done it the last two years so know I can do it. Wondering whether to carry it on a little longer this year or to just really cut down on the wine I drink in the house.

    It would be easy if it was just me but my OH likes a drink and of course constantly offers me one too and I do enjoy the odd glass of nice wine! ;)

    I am doing dry Jan aswell

    My focus is weight loss and trying to get healthy, I am 3 stone down and need another stone by mid March to be able to fit into my smaller holiday clothes... I am too tight to buy new! :D:D:D:D

    Sarah and me are doing a 20,000 step challenge - you are welcome to join in with us!

    Great to still see people joining in :T

    For those that are trying to lose some weight as well, remember to eat just a little bit less and that combined with the extra walking will make all the difference.
    I have lost 30kg since I started walking seriously and recording my mileage.

    First recording for this year is 10.22 miles on what was a very wet morning and afternoon then turning so cold and icy this evening that I cut my last walk short :o

    Managed my 10,000 steps...(just!, ran around the lounge a few times :)
    but did not even do 5 miles, due to it raining nearly all day. Will be a better day tomorrow as Tuesdays I walk with some other ladies, so hopefully around 8 miles or so.

    8 miles is fabulous - I was exhausted after doing it this morning.... I can only dream of doing 10 miles!

    After walking the dog I'm at 27,000 steps well I will be when I have got my bottom upstairs and climbed into the shower!
