Elisa View Profile History	Fitness Challenge Week 1 Posted : 16 Jan, 2011 06:03 PM Thanks for starting. If I might add just a couple of thoughts... 1. Check in - provides some accountability and ensures we are taking care of each other 2. Ask any and all questions. Provide answers. We are all here to get healthy together. 3. Provide a positive, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment to facilitate learning and growing together. Post Reply

View Profile History	Fitness Challenge Week 1 Posted : 16 Jan, 2011 07:36 PM um good question i googled it and it's somewhere between 1/16 to 1/18 of a mile. So if you walk somewhere around that, you will be doing good. Post Reply

bcpianogal View Profile History	Fitness Challenge Week 1 Posted : 16 Jan, 2011 09:06 PM You must have longer legs than I do, Two! I usually make about 3-4 miles in an hour. Today I walked 3 miles, and drank more than the required amount of water, so I'm good! Post Reply
View Profile History	Fitness Challenge Week 1 Posted : 16 Jan, 2011 09:31 PM One block is 1/16 of a mile? I did not know that. Ok, this is starting out easy because I already do much more than that, but that's ok, I'm still in! Drank the water and did not walk, but I did two hours of weed pulling in the yard. Two -- depending on how fast you walk, 15 minutes could be a mile to a mile and a quarter. At your rate I am guessing you walked a mile and a quarter. Post Reply
