hello @Dimity @Oaktree , @bipolarbunny , @Bunniekins , @Former-Member , @Judi9877 , @Jacques , @eth , @Olga , @MySunrise , @Anastasia , @Peri , @Appleblossom , @Adge , @Determined ,

today we went for a big drive around and had maccas for lunch and took some photos xxx

I did quite a bit of Walking through several Shopping Centres, this afternoon.

I'm one of those people who does not try to get the closest Parking Bay (to Shop entrance).

I'm quite happy to walk through the Carpark, to entrance - then walk through the entire Shopping Centre, to get to the Shop that I need.

That's what I usually do, most times that I go shopping.

@frog @Eve7 @Dimity @Shaz51 @Adge

Great work everyone! I had a day off training today still cold and wet here in country Vic, haven't been outside for a run for over a week. Really need to rug up and just hit the pavement, much easier to ride my bike indoors but getting bored with that.

Hope you all have a great evening. xx

@Oaktree I hope you are feeling better my friend xx

@bipolarbunny @Oaktree @Dimity @Shaz51

Not quite @Appleblossom Unless the Escallators are 250 to 300 metres Long....

Hello @Oaktree @bipolarbunny @Shaz51 @Appleblossom @Adge I hope you're finding walking an outlet if you're in lockdown land. I've been walking every second day for essentials like doctor, groceries but will try to walk again tomorrow and over the weekend to work off some anxiety and maybe pass some neighbours who are also out for exercise. How are you getting on? A few years ago some colleagues and I did a walking challenge using pedometers to track our progress. Have any of you used fitness apps?

@Dimity I am not an apps type of person, so walking up an escalator is actually a big thing for me ... Mostly I am just an out and about kind ... and walk if I can ... even do a few laps around stations

@bipolarbunny @Shaz51 @Oaktree and all

Someone is picking me up for a walk tmrw morning which is lovely.

Best Foot Forward ...

@Appleblossom Hi... I didn't realise there was an apps type of person. I doubt I'd qualify. I was just curious about whether anyone had any experience checking time and/or distance without necessarily using a smartwatch or fitbit. I haven't seen pedometers for years so assumed they're superseded. I had to check my 5km radius for lockdown and was challenged even by Google Maps. Having a goal, keeping a record or being pleased with achieving some improvement... that's all I had in mind. I'm not competitive, just struggling a little to maintain motivation and thought others might be in the same boat.
