7/24: 15 minutes yoga, and a cumulative total of 1 hour, 40 minutes walking.
today (so far): 30 minutes hiking. it was going to be a good long hike, but there was fresh bear sign everywhere and I started to get paranoid, so decided it was time to head back to civilization. yeeps.
edited 'cause I don't speak UBB code today, apparently.

end of day addendum - walked to the lodge with the cast for drinks on a very sunny!!! deck and then walked back to the car - an additional 35 minutes. the drinks and accompanying food probably canceled it out, but the company was lovely. and the sun was dynamite! It's been a very grey summer.
I also rolled down the big hill with my son a few times - totally counts! but didn't give me more than a few minutes, so no worries. (taking yourself too seriously? borrow a kid and go roll down a hill. fixes everything.)

Yesterday I can count 2 hours out of the 5 or 6 hours moving furniture, cleaning and decluttering. I did move a filing cabinet and contents, two desks and contents and two bookshelves and contents, plus a whole lot of cleaning - two and half years of working 24/7 has not done much for the housework, this is a huge job. Plus 30 minutes of the two hours I spent outside chasing butterflies. Total for the day 2½ hours

Wednesday, July 25th (cont)
25 mins walking at lunchtime
20 mins walking home
60 mins walking dog
Thursday, July 26th (so far)
20 mins walking dog
Total to add: 125 minutes
Total so far: 3345 minutes or 55 hours and 45 minutes
Still truckin'. Having suggested two-hour days would keep one in the running (or walking, very much a walking-based race for me this time out) I have managed to do more than two and a half hours on both Tuesday and Wednesday this week. I ended up giving an unexpected tour of the campus yesterday at lunchtime to some of our new students and staff members and the pleasant weather prompted us to consider more regular walking at lunchtime (sorry la vie en rouge!) both now and into the winter when we are in the office through all the hours of daylight.
I'm a bit disappointed to have very few dancing minutes in my total, but it's difficult to find time to take the dog out for an hour after work and also attend a night of social dancing from 7:30-10pm. I shall have to see what I can come up with over the weekend, but I suspect it will mostly be more walking. And possibly some cycling - there's likely to be some of that this evening to make up for trading off the dog walk this morning. The extra hour in bed was absolute bliss.

Yesterday was not a good day - no time to do any serious exercise. Today has been better:
15 minutes swimming (the rest of the time was spent standing in the children's pool making congratulatory noises whilst Daughter showed off her swimming)
and 1 hour 5 minutes gym workout
Running total 31 hours 1 minute (nowhere near the leaders, but at least I broke 30 hours)

Back where the weather is only Hellacious, so 35 minutes schlepping luggage back home over a mile-and-a-half from the bus (it was heavy, I get to be slow!) and 20 minutes on the bike.

after morning shift had to run some errands, but the sun was out and lovely again so I blew off the least pressing ones and we went to the beach. (sandy river bank) so walking in, "swimming" aka roughhousing with the boys in water, and walking out - 45 minutes. I wish I could claim more but a good chunk of time was spent being a lump in the sand.
now, off to night shift!

Thursday, July 26th (cont)
20 mins walking home
60 mins walking dog
Friday, July 27th (so far)
15 mins walking dog (excluding time spent trying to persuade two dogs that they should really carry about their own balls, not each other's)
30 mins walking to work the long way round to make up some minutes
Total to add: 125 minutes
Total so far: 3470 minutes or 57 hours and 50 minutes
Weather gave out last night after an early dog walk so I didn't put in any extra minutes even though I had planned to venture out for provisions. I sat on the sofa doing crochet instead which won't have counted as activity for the purposes of the race but did mean that I made some progress on the huge project that has a deadline in August on it.
Part of me wants to put in a big push this weekend and see how far I can blast through my 60-hour target (I have a 60-hour target, that's ridiculous) but I don't think many of the things I have to do are going to help me add minutes. Of course a totally weekend includes at least 180 minutes of dog walking and 35-40 minutes of walking to church so it wouldn't take much to manage 5 hours of activity over the two days. And there is gardening to be done.

Yesterday wasn't a good day for aerobic exercise, decluttering paperwork isn't that energetic. I can count hauling full recycling sacks of paper to the recycling bin and some of getting out for a wander via somewhere I thought I might get butterfly shots, but met various kids to chat to and then back to the supermarket. I'm going to count 30 minutes moving at aerobic pace.

I've done what I could, but haven't kept very good track, so just count me out of the race. My primary sport is swimming and since i now teach swimming, I ahve difficulty getting in my own work-out. That, plus I have 2 other jobs and have been BUSY and a littel burnt-out. Then I got an ear infection....
I got ina good walk yesterday and a quick swim last week, and walking to and from one of my jobs, but... just not up to snuff.
Everyone else - well done! ![[Overused]](graemlins/notworthy.gif)

1hour 58 minutes Today. Big bike is out of action so much more walking. Also a swim.
I think this totals 22 hours 57 minutes. But I'm prepared to be corrected.

Liberty I make that 2835 minutes - a very good 47h 15m
I'm counting 2¼ hours walking yesterday - that's tube to where I was going, from tube three stops away at the other end and then walking home through the Forest - I'm getting fitter - the route home through the Forest is 5½ miles and I did it in under 2 hours - with a couple of 10 minute stops to take pictures, but I took them off (damselflies and hoverflies/butterflies). It's hilly there, it was considered as the bike route for the Olympics, but it's not hilly enough, no 300m drops. I'm also counting 20 minutes for the two tube walks.

Sorry now that I let real-life intrude so that I bailed out of this race. It has turned hilarious with hill-rolling, butterfly chasing and "doing the bouncy"!!! I have to admit I had to backtrack to Liberty's link for that, to discover with some relief that it didn't mean what I thought it might.
Anyway, well done all of you who have stuck, and keep on rolling, chasing, bouncing, biking and walking the dang dog!

Today: 64 minutes taking laps around the local lake. For some completely inscrutable reason, the usual crowd of walkers, joggers, kids, and slow cyclists was completely absent.
Sometimes the heat's okay.

okay, I'll count it! and it was, believe me. like wrestling with a panicky and smelly yeti.
so, for 7/28: dog bathing combined with yoga and calisthenics: 1 hour, 10 minutes. my push ups were pathetic today.

24 July, another 4 minutes getting to and from the chippy!
25 July: 28 minutes to work; 35 minutes getting home. Total of 1 hour 3 minutes.
26 July: 28 minutes to work; 36 minutes into town; 22 minutes getting home after giving blood; 7 minutes walking up to ringing; and 10 minutes walking back. No ringing, as with a brand new hole in my arm that would have been a Bad Thing™. Total of 1 hour 43 minutes.
27 July got a bit more energetic (briefly!). 28 minutes to work; 44 minutes to the library by using the canal route; 9 minutes getting home; 17 minutes to the Friday tower; about 2 minutes ringing up; 41 minutes ringing a quarter peal for the Olympics in the evening instead of at 8am ; about 30 minutes of general ringing; 5 minutes over to see the parents; 20 minutes getting home again. Total of 3 hours 16 minutes.
28 July, the only walking I did was between carpark and pub, so a big fat zero for Saturday.
29 July: 10 minutes to church, 15 minutes ringing; 10 minutes back. That's 35 minutes so far today.
Total this post 6 hours 41 minutes, new running total 34 hours 48 minutes.

Just 40 minutes walking today. I was planning to walk all the way home from church but it was raining.

Posted to here, declaring 60 minutes of the 2½ hours I spent out walking yesterday - too much waiting for the farmer to come near, then sprinting back again.
Today 7½ miles walk that took 2½ hours (well, nearer 3½ hours but I'm taking off an hour for photography) and 20 minutes rush to supermarket and back - total 2 hours 50 minutes

40 mins walking home via the shop for teatime veggies
90 mins dog walking
Saturday, July 28th
20 mins cycling to and from supermarket
120 mins dog walking
Sunday, July 29th
30 mins walking dog
10 mins cycling to church
20 mins walking to lunch
30 mins cycling home
60 mins walking dog
Monday, July 30th (so far)
30 mins walking dog
20 mins walking to work
Total to add: 470 minutes or 7 hours and 50 minutes
Total so far: 3940 minutes or 65 hours and 40 minutes
That two-hour walk on Saturday was brutal. Off we went in our T-shirts and shorts in the sunshine. Half an hour in it started raining and didn't stop for another hour. We sheltered at a garden centre with scones and tea, it was our original destination and probably the only reason we didn't give up earlier on. Fortunately no-one seems to have come down with anything, probably because when we got home the dog was towelled off and left next to a radiator and the people went and had baths.

I can say I did 60 minutes reasonable lick walking today - seeking out allotments to take pictures - broken into smaller amounts
There are quite a few people to post times still. Can we ask the hosts to keep this open to the end of this week please, so people like Yangtze and Ultracrepidarian can add their times?

I rock!
yesterday, 7/29, was looking like a bit of a dud. I got called in to work at the bar after the play to cover for a few hours and figured I was skunked. but the band was GREAT. so when I clocked out at 10, I started dancing and kept going until 1 am. woot! so much fun. I need to have an excuse to dance everyday, I'd be half my current size.
anyway, taking into account the band's one break, I can log 2 hours, 40 minutes of good, heavy duty dancing. feels great!

Friday 27th 70 minutes cycling and I reckon I can probably count 5 minutes of the walking I did.
Saturday walked a fair bit - but all too leisurely to make the grade.
Sunday 28th went for a walk that would normally take me 35 minutes each way. Out was slower than normal with family and chatting, but I had to dash back to get the dinner on leaving the others to their own devices - so made it back in 25 minutes. I reckon 50 minutes is a reasonable claim.
running total 23hrs 45minutes with one day to go.

long walk with boys and dogs. we wandered all over, and at a good clip because the youngest was on his bike. 1 hour, 45 minutes. I skipped out on more dancing because I can't stand the idea of going out. it would require clothing.

Well I think it's safe to say that TTP has disappeared in a cloud of dust, but I shall aim at a worthy second place ![[Biased]](wink.gif)
2 hours 15 minutes walking yesterday and 1 hour 10 minutes running (9 minutes miles* ![[Yipee]](graemlins/spin.gif) ) this morning.
*yeah yeah I know it's not that fast really. But it is fast for me to keep up that pace for that long.

Last day. Homeward stretch. Could be an odd one as I have a cinema trip planned so will have to squeeze walking the dog in around that. Might make me leave my desk at a reasonable time, I suppose. And the transport minutes will be a boost.
I think I'll let my flatmate deal with the morning dog walks for a few days once the race is over.
