I walked 6.7 miles. I have been walking a little over 6 miles lately. The main reason for this is that I have joined a website where you keep track of your steps for the day. Most people try for 10,000 steps a DAY. I am just keeping track of the steps I take on my walk. I gave myself a goal of 12,000 steps which is about 6 miles for me. So now I've become a bit obsessed with the steps I take and try to surpass that goal each day. Today my steps were 13,774. I'm trying hard not to leave my pedometer on for the whole day because then who knows where I'll end up walking!! :-)
This morning I'll be going to the commissary. I still have to make up my list so I'd better go to that and have some breakfast.
Have a great Thursday.
Happyone :-)

Good idea not to leave it on all day...you could wind up like Ellen's grandmother!
Your comment about not walking near the lake is so simple and so subtle. No angst. No arggghhhs. I need to calm down. :D
-giggles- Getting obsessed with number of steps, hu? Hey, you could have a worse obsession! :-)
I'm very impressed with the miles you walk each day.
My pedometer is my friend. Today I thought about taking a day of rest, but then I thought I wouldn't reach 10,000 for the day without that walk. So I went out and I was glad I did. It was pretty nice and my body was happy that I did. Of course, I keep mine on all day because I haven't reached the high levels that you have for your daily walk. You are inspirational.
I am smiling at Vee's comment about Ellen's grandmother.
I have a pedometer around here somewhere. You have inspired me to go find it.
I need to find my pedometer, too. It's kind of fun to track the number of steps you take in a day.
That seems an amazing number of steps to me! Good for you!
As I passed the lake this morning I noticed quite a line of porta potties. I wondered what they were for!
