I use the Map My Walk app. You just push the green button at the bottom when you begin. Then hit Pause and then hold it down when you stop. Easy Peasy.I have my phone with me on my walks. I don't know how to use apps though.

Maybe I'll try it when I can get back outside. It has been raining the past 2 days, so I'm taking my 2 hour walk inside again today.I use the Map My Walk app
Google maps also lets you measure mileage. Not as you walk, at least not the desktop version, but if you search for your address, go to maps, and right click on your address, "measure distance" comes up, then you just drag your mouse along the route you walked and it will calculate how far you walked. Then there's online calculators that let you put in the distance and time, which calculate how fast you were walking.Maybe I'll try it when I can get back outside.

At 55 you probably need a couple layers. A long sleeve cotton t shirt underneath the corduroy might be warm enough. Otherwise, add a hoodie on top.I only lasted 2 seconds outside today. It was only 55 degrees and my new corduroy shirt was not warm at all! So disappointing. Back to fleece sweatshirts! I took my 2 hour walk inside, listening to my Goo Goo Dolls and Wallflowers playlist that my dad made for me.
Yeah, I didn't really have time, I started walking at 3pm and I didn't want to stop because I wanted to be finished by 5pm so I could have my coffee before dinner. Plus I didn't want to put a shirt over my pretty new corduroy shirt. Next time I will wear a shirt underneath it. I don't have a hoodie. I have a winter puffer jacket.At 55 you probably need a couple layers. A long sleeve cotton t shirt underneath the corduroy might be warm enough. Otherwise, add a hoodie on top.
Oh no.I think the motivation is gone for me now.![]()
Don't you go getting yourself sick again.Then I get all the way down the road and it starts raining on me.![]()
That's why I came straight back after one lap. I learned my lesson, not to let myself get cold like that again. I might not be able to walk under 60 degrees without my puffer jacket on. But I want to wash it first. Have to go to a laundromat though because of you know who. What a pain.Don't you go getting yourself sick again.
No, wasn't over doing it. Was actually walking less miles than I was used to doing. Would do 4-5 miles before. I wasn't getting any enjoyment and it became a chore.Oh no.Maybe you've been overdoing it, with those long walks. Try shorter ones, maybe.

I went for my first walk in a while. Only 27 minutes, but better than nothing.
I actually read a clothing catalog while I was taking my walk inside the other day! First time I ever did that while walking.Right now I'm only letting myself read the newest book by one of my favorite authors when I work out.
This cold is finally doing me in. I'll have to wear a real coat or just walk inside. It's just too dang cold, November weather already.You've all been doing so well, walking in the cold.
