My Walks


This blog is going to be for fun and will hold the virtual walks I will undertake.
I belong to a team on Sparkpeople .com named HOGWARTS, no prizes for guessing it is based on the Hogwarts in the Harry Potter films. We have all four Houses, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Slytherin.
I was sorted into
and I love being part of this Team and House. We work on different ways to improve our lives including a healthy lifestyle.
As part of this I am going to do more walking at home using various Walking DVDs and videos on YouTube.
Leslie Sansone
1 Mile in home walk

Jane Fonda
Walking Cardio Workout : Level 1

I also have DVDs that I can use or simply use the walks whilst listening to Audio books.

I will be working on this in the Quidditch Pitch Practice Field

10b. STEP JOURNEY: From your front door (or where ever you'd like to start) how many miles will you go, to get to WHERE you want to be by, ONE month? Choose (on ANY map - real or make-believe) the destination (town, park, city, ~*~magic~*~ place) keeping a running monthly track. As you go, take a Bonus of Faux Story Notes describing things. Report your progress & a Paragraph of your Story Notes to Class, at the END of your JOURNEY each wk.
Earnings on 10b:
½pt 5 miles + notes (additional ½pt waits on challenge template) = 1pt
1pt 10 miles + notes (additional 1pt waits on challenge template) = 2pts
1½pt 15 miles + notes (additional 1pt waits on challenge template) = 2½pts
Paragraph Bonus at END of Month = 2pts (includes 'bonus' for + notes)

2 points 1st wk (for doing a minimum of 10 miles and 2 notes)
2 points 2nd wk (for doing a minimum of 10 miles and 2 notes)
2 points 3rd wk (for doing a minimum of 10 miles and 2 notes)
3 points 4th wk (for doing a minimum of 10 miles and 1 paragraph)


So my plan is to walk 40 miles in  four weeks, by having a plan to work to I will be able to keep to my goal. Writing it down and blogging helps to keep me motivated, I will pictures and information about the walks, some will be real walks and some will be fantasy walks but all will be virtual.
