walking to disney?

[Netty]

I have seen this on the bottom of some peoples threads, just wanted to know what it was??? me just being nosey

 

[Mumof2]

Glad you asked this question. I'm wondering too - so there are two nosey people

Hi Netty, its a w.i.s.h thing, you work out how far the world is from you and when you're going and you walk x amount of miles each day to lose weight!, not toooo bad for most of our american friends but they've mostly got a 3thousand mile head start on us!

 

[Netty]

lets hope were not the only ones!!

 

[Netty]

Thanks Carol, how do i go about working the miles out, and how do i join!

 

[carolfoy]

[Netty]

Why don't we all get together, build a raft and do a 'paddle to disney' challenge instead, I'm 'fairly' near lands end, seems like a good starting point.

Blast! Carol,
I've just ordered a pedometer from Ebay too.
(no seriously I have 1p + p&p.) I fancy having a go at this 10,000 steps thing for exercise.
I'm at the seaside too but you're further south and west . You'll have a head start.
We had our summer holiday in Cornwall last year, it was lovely, sunny and hot.

You were more than lucky Berwyn!!! I can't remember it doing anything other than all last summer hence a very overgrown and bedraggled garden to sort out this year!

I've been doing the 10,000 step thing too Berwyn even though I'm genetically predisposed to avoid exercise at all costs!!!! This is a good website to convert other forms of exercise into steps, taking into account your sex, height and present weight. I love swimming so I do that instead.

That's a good site , thank you Di.

 

[Netty]

hi Berwyn, can you pick me up on the way on the raft? maybe change your pedometer for a water proof one!!

 

[BCT]

I'd be going the wrong way to Florida via prestatyn, we probably end up in Blackpool
