Saturday Morning Walks!

It is week 1 of the Walk It challenge! This year I decided to try a weekend walk! Wanna walk with me?

Here's my idea:

Saturday April 9th I will walk at Crissy Fields, starting at the Warm Hut (just before Fort Point). We will meeting right in front of the Warm Hut (water side!) at 9am to start walking at 9:15.

Doggies are welcome, as are friends and family! We will start with a 1.5 mile walk for our first adventure. You need: Comfy walking shoes, water, a snack (fruit!), clean up bag (if doggie is coming!) and weather friendly clothes (it's San Francisco, layers!).

It is not a race, we are getting ourselves moving together and having fun doing so. Come walk with us, with or without a doggie!

Here's the specifics again:

Where: Crissy Field, Meet in front of the Warm Hut Cafe

When: meet at 9am

How long: 1.5 miles

Bring yourself, your doggie, your fruit! It'll be fun!

Walk It challenge is coming!

The Walk it Challenge is coming in April!! It's time to take a good look at your walking shoes, look up your walking routes, find the perfect time to walk.

Spring is there (who would have known after this weekend rain?) and with the time change we have a little more time of daylight every night!

My plan is to go out and walk every night that it's not raining for at least 45 minutes.
What is YOUR plan?

Tools:

Pedometer: Did I ever mention that I love the pedometer? I forgot it every day last week, and was so bummed since I walked so much. So back on it goes!

Map my walk/run/ride:

You can map your walk/run and figure out how many miles/Km you are walking, even the terrain!

What do you do to stay active? What's your favorite activity. Weight loss/management isn't only about food!!

Step Challenge - Bay to Breakers!

Step challenge

Ok, this time we are ON!

The Rules:

Every day you want to track the total number of steps you have taken that day.

You want to add up every day and divided by 7 to know the average number of steps you've taken each day.

You can also follow the Step Challenge 2011 on Facebook!

When you come to your meeting, we want to hear all about it!!

Bay to Breakers

I'm also planning on walking Bay to Breakers. If you want to come and join the fun, we'll be meeting somewhere downtown (TBD), walking (and people watching!) together.

Costumes? That could be fun!
