SpanksTheMonkey Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Well I wasn't planing on it but I walked just under 2 miles tonight in roughly 28 Min's a record for me I think.. I missed the bus and wanted to go into town so figured what the heck! I love to walk and do so often as I don't have a car. I took the bus home tho got to cheat some times lol... Any one else enjoy walking whats your routine?
oasis Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I walk 20 minutes one way, 5 days a week, back and forth to work. Also, I speedwalk 1 hour on Saturdays and Sundays, on the track, in a nearby park.
Beautiful Inside Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 20 min on the treadmill 5 days a week at least
Trialbyfire Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I'm not rigid in my sched for walking, during the non-winter. I do anywhere from 2 - 7 kms per session unless I'm walking with someone who has a more rigid sched. A friend of mine walks daily, unless there's snow. When I join her the amount walked is also not rigid, due to rain. She does a serious pace, is taller than I am, so I'm half jogging to keep up with her! Think toddler scrambling after the adult!
burning 4 revenge Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I just walked two miles and I feel like a Roman soldier I probably smell like one too. I should shower, but this is more fun
Nebo74 Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I'm 34 and after nearly 15 years of nothing but beer and pizza, I started off walking one mile in Aug 08 about twice a week. Now I run about a 1/2 mile, walk the same distance and do this again for two miles total about 4 to 5 times a week. If I don't plan on running, I walk 3 miles during my lunch hour at work. Also pepper in weights and basketball.
Author SpanksTheMonkey Posted March 22, 2009 Author Posted March 22, 2009 She does a serious pace, is taller than I am, so I'm half jogging to keep up with her! Think toddler scrambling after the adult! I know the feeling I'm of the shorter variety myself I use to have a Friend that was 6'5 once and I just about had to sprint when he was in a hurry just to keep up lol..
Brady_to_Moss Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I walk to my car and thats about it...haha i just LOVE to drive. So much fun for me. But i run 3 times a day 3 miles each time. Weigh training the other days.
crosswordfiend Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I walk easily 5-10 km a day in my daily business. Never really considered walking as a specific exercise activity.
Meaplus3 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I power walk 4 miles 4-5 days per week. When I started out I only did a mile or so.. but now I'm up to 4 on average.. and sometimes 5. Walikng for me is a great way to boost my mood and stay fit. Mea:)
blondesmiler Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Just day to day walking from car to work and around work etc I do around 5000 - 6000 steps then I also go to the gym 2-4 times a week were I will job for about 40mins, cycle, stepper etc. Sometimes if the weather is nice like today I will go out for a walk/job for an hour covering about 3.75miles.
dhiraaz Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 I try to walk a a fair amount after a run as I think it helps in recovery. Not anything official or planned, but just parking further away, doing stairs, walking more at work, etc.
thegoodlife Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 I walk an hour and a half - 2 hours 7 days a week in all seasons, and I run a few miles 3 days a week in all seasons except for winter.
squall Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 I don't know how much I walk everyday, I really can't say. But I play Basketball 3 times a week and there is a lot of running involved in it. Is it advisable to have a pedometer? Where can I get one?
nobody's girl Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 During the week 2-3 miles a day. Weekends up to 10 miles or so. Yesterday was 3 miles, today was 5. It pays to have dogs that need exercise, otherwise I'd never get off the couch!
SuiteRapture Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I probably end up running 20 miles a week .. and walking 15 ..
blind_otter Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I push the baby in the stroller a little over 3 miles a day. Sometimes up to 6 miles, if he's fussy. If I wear him in the Moby, however, I can only walk 2 miles at this point. He's just too heavy for me now, at 10 months old.
