Today Cheryl and I (and my 10 year old) went to the beach for a walk. We’ve got a beautiful beach and park 2 miles or so from my moms house that we’ve been going to our whole lives. My husband told me it was 3 miles from the entrance, out the causeway, once around the beach, and back again. The pedometer said only 2.25, but oh well. I told Cheryl we needed to start meeting every weekend to walk, and that next weekend, we’re going around twice for a total of 4.5 miles.
She groaned.

2.25 is better than 0! Every step counts!

Catherine, my neice, and Colleen’s 10 year old is a great motivator! She gets sooo excited when she is going walking with us…when Colleen said we were going to walk the beach twice next Sunday, I groaned and Catherine not only cheered, but then bragged to her Sister Grace about it when we got back to the house! She cracks me up! Oh, to have the body of a 10 year old again!

Yes….I groaned. I admit it…my bones and muscles are older than hers, I can feel it in my knees and back when I walk. PLUS, we are going to Disney MGM on Saturday, so that will be a lot of walking as well…so we are getting 2 days of training in this weekend!
