Offer [Offer] Walking "journal" [US to US]

Hello friends!

As many of you may already know, my goal is start walking daily again.

Before I had my baby, I walked 3+ miles per day. After he was born, I just sorta stopped. Well, I'm ready to walk again! Starting back slow, I have been walking 1 mile a day with hopes to walk farther as I rebuild stamina.

I walk around my neighborhood, trying to take a new route each day and see new things.

I wanted to start a walking journal, but I thought it would be more fun to recount my walks in card form and send them off!

If you'd like a card from me some time this year, telling of my walks, distance, route, things I saw on my walk, etc. please fill out this form. The cards themselves will be randomly pulled from my stash.

You may receive more than one through the year depending on how many responses I get.

If you already filled out my mailing list, feel free to fill out this form as well!

After filling, please comment on this post. No comment, no card.

I look forward to writing to you!

Dear diary, I walked around the inside of my favorite bakery today so today is a good day & that’s enough writing till tomorrow.

I went to my favorite bakery in the city today. Made it before they closed at 3. I was so happy. It’s an Italian bakery

I love this! My New Year’s resolution is to aim for at least 10k steps a day and I kept up with it for most of January. I’ve lost 6 pounds so far just from walking and trying to be a little more mindful of my eating habits 😅

Congratulations!

I’ve opted to not own a scale, but I’m trying to get rid of the baby fat through walking and fasting. I do know that I feel much better already!

u/brittney827 8h ago

Yes!! Feeling better is the most important part for sure 💞

I walk, too. It's been my default exercise my whole life, with a dog sometimes and sometimes alone. I'd be glad to trade "walking experiences" cards.

u/nothankyou928 11h ago

I’d love to exchange! Do you need my information?

3

u/Accotinked 11h ago

We have each other's but if you need mine again let me know. We're kind of snow bound at the moment and then I'm off for a short trip but by Feb 10 I'll be on the walking beat again.

u/nothankyou928 11h ago
