So I signed up for the America on the Move thingy online. (You sign up to “hike” a virtual trail in x many days, then track your progress each day by writing down how many steps you’ve taken that day from your pedometer—it then shows you how far you would have made it thus far on a map of whatever trail you’ve decided to virtually “hike”.) Its supposed to help motivate you to start walking/exercising/moving more.
Nice start right? Only with the colder weather I’ve been a wuss and haven’t gone out walking since I brought my kids trick-or-treating, and seriously, that shouldn’t count.
So, I’m setting my pedometer next to the PC, since I check my email every morning first thing. Hopefully, this will be a decent reminder for me to put the thing on and actually get out there and walk a bit more.
