WAlk to Disney Challenge... feel free to join

[MickeyMom76]

Yesterday and today I logged 8 miles, which puts me in Disney World! Woohoo!

Walked a total of 1037 miles in 288 days. Made it with plenty of time to spare before my actual trip in 18 days!

Keep walking, ladies. You can do it! And have fun!!!

I haven’t logged in a couple weeks but I’ve been walking a ton lately as the weather is finally nice here.
884 miles to go for me. I started using map my walk app and l like that for keeping track.
I didn’t start the app until mid March so I’m missing some miles but it’s good for tracking.

Ok you’ve all inspired me!

I have 1,111 miles and 118 days. Need to work off 20 pandemic pounds too. Going to see how far I can get...

Still walking.

27.7 miles for the week.
210.1/612.

One-third of the way to Disney. May need to pick up the pace as we head to Disney in about 11 weeks.

I hit 35 miles last week!
113/365 (to DLR) and 2,780 (to WDW)

252 miles left to Disneyland, and 2,667 miles to Disney World. We'll be at DLR in 20 days, and of the 5 of us going, I'm the one who has done the most walking. The 15 year old is cracking me up - her daily step goal is to get to 4,000 steps because her parents said she can't have dessert until she's had that much physical activity. So she hits that much and then no more, but told us that she's going to rely on her youth and adrenaline to get her though each day at DLR. My DS13 has decided that her philosophy works for him, too, although he does go for a 1 mile walk with me each afternoon. Meanwhile the 3 adults all are getting out for longer walks each day, because we know how quickly our middle aged bodies will call it quits if we don't stay in shape.

Just found this thread!! Question for you all. Do you use a pedometer that counts ours steps for the entire day to log your miles or is this all extra walking only? Thinking I may try this. I’m thinking of a trip in February and have 933 miles to Fort Wilderness campground. Working from home has made me fat/depressed/ and lazy. I really need a pick me up and this may help

l track “extra” walking only. I’m a nurse, and walk a ton, if l tracked that, too.... I’d probably be there already

LOL I’m a nurse to but working managed care case management from home so on a computer all day long every day!!! Thanks for the input. Think I may do the math and start this next week!!

I also log everything. I’d say it’s whatever works for you to motivate you to keep moving

Next summer (2022), we are going to Yosemite and might add on a few days in Disneyland at the end of that trip. We live on the east coast, so the total miles I need to walk to make it to DLR is 2736 miles in roughly 430 days!
So I’m going to use the miles I’ve walked so far to help me get there in time. Adding in the miles from this past week, I’m now at:
1068/2736

Slow week here, gotta try to pick it up this week!
25.9 miles logged

121.5/415 miles to WDW (SSR)

 

[Jennyonecoin]

14.5 more miles walked. 869.5 to go

 

[ImarriedGrumpy]

Another week of 35 miles (plus 43 flights of stairs, but that's another story )!

148/365 (to DLR) and 2,780 (to WDW)

We're 13 days from our trip to DLR, and I definitely won't get the remaining 217 miles in before then, lol! We've been joking about adding up the miles of walking among all 5 of us to see how many we can get all together.

 

[Statefan17]

Slowly making progress.

27.8 more miles.

237.9/612 miles.

Welcome!! And as you can see, we all do whatever works as far as counting miles!

I only do my treadmill walking - partly because I don't keep my phone on me all the time (so I wouldn't be accurately tracking my normal walking around anyway) and partly because I was using the same tally to justify buying the thing. I like it because it's convenient - I just take a snapshot of the mile counter before I turn it off.

9.13 miles since my last post

306.53/1,317

 

[MickeyMom76]

Another 27 miles logged

1095/2736

 

[abc123mom]

Trip planned for December, 1,000 miles from here to WDW. I've been looking for a way to get motivated to log more steps, giving this a go!

 

[Statefan17]

Still walking but need to pick up the pace .

Walked 26.5 miles this past week.

264.5/612
