True to my personality, I’m only about 2 months late in writing about this. Back at the first of the year our friends Katie, Maizey and Magnus decided to challenge themselves and anyone who wanted to join them to a year long walking challenge. I needed some encouragement to get in better shape, and the dogs will never turn down the opportunity to walk more. So, we joined them.

Well, as of today…I’m thrilled to say that Dare and I have walked 150 miles this year! I had a kind of a silly idea the other day. I was thinking about how quickly the miles can add up and how fun it would be to take the total miles at the end of the year and take a trip to a destination that many miles from home. I know, it’s probably kind of a weird idea, but I don’t care.
In the meantime, Dare and I are both getting in better shape, and so even if we don’t get to go on a trip at the end of the year, I think we’re benefitting. I know I sure feel better. 
Wow – congratulations! That’s a lot of miles!
This year???? In 2011 you already walked 150 miles? That’s amazing! Well, even if it’s not all in 2011 it’s STILL amazing to even think about walking that far! I don’t think Katie and I could do that. Wait. That’s silly. Of course we could do that…but it would mean getting off the computer and off the sofa…hmmm….
VERY COOL, you guys should be very proud of yourselves, that is a lot of sticking to it, and how fantastic for your health and I am sure just how you feel. You guys deserve a nice new collar, or a new outfit or something to celebrate your accomplishment
Walking is such a good thing! Though the couch is soooo comfy,

. I figured I would just audit since that sounds like basically the same thing except you do not post videos to the group. –Kathy
This is the long distance puppy class of Sylvia Turkmans, if you check it out and want to do it too, we should form a little group
