Video 6 Winter Walk 2009 & brought my dog Punkin

Winter Walk 2009
10,026 steps today Yay! Boy, were my legs tired. I took my dog Punkin with me. She wasn't used to walking so far -- and with so many other people! ha ha Part of the way she kept jumping on my leg and wanting me to pick her up so I had to carry her. She weighs 10 lbs so I guess I could add in that I had a 1- lb weight in my arms part of the way too! lol

OMG!! YOUR DOGS ARE ADORABLE!! LOL 80 degrees huh??  That's some Winter Walk!! LOL Congrats on all of those steps!! OMG THATS ALOT! :)

[myfreshstart]

ha ha thanks Sarah! Well....Daisy was alittle peeved she had to stay home. But it would have been too much to bring both. Because then I would have been trying to carry both of them at time! Yikes! ha ha But Daisy only weighs 6 lbs. Yeah, winter walk at almost 80 degrees!! ha ha Last year we were cold and had layers of clothes on. This year people wore shorts! And a couple of days ago we had an ice storm!

Oh yeah, and I forgot to say that when I went last year, I could only walk one-way...very slow...and I got out of breath along the way. NOT THIS YEAR!! lol Maybe next year I can try to make my dog walk faster so I can pick up the speed.....not really. I just wanted to be outside to walk. I dont' go for a race, just a walk. I don't want to get run over by a stroller or anything! ha ha

[leeannz19]

WOW!!! 10,000 steps, that is awesome. CONGRATUALTIONS!!!

[myfreshstart]

Yeah, they had about 250 I heard-- people walking, running, roller blading, kids in wagons, lots of dogs (Punkin got to meet lots of new fur friends) and at the end they had a litte health fair. Gave drinks & healthy snacks out, health checks, bounce house, prizes, our firemen did blood pressure checks, there was a chair massage, etc. Fun time!
