Well done Emma..... you should be super fit after that! I think feet up for a few hours is on the menu for you!!

Hope it doesn't rain on the night of your walk......

Thanks Mags, Not sure what happens if it does rain, don't really fancy walking in the rain, especially if it is a downpour

Re: Moonwalk training - my walk today


You're in really good condition now Emma if you could have gone another mile or so! And you were by yourself, right? On the actual walks/.runs the companionship of the others gives you a boost!

Re: Moonwalk training - my walk today


Hi dandysmom, yes I was walking by myself, I was listening to the radio on my mobile phone though!!! lol

I don't really feel as if I am in good condition!!! lol I am hoping to do some more walks next week so it will be interesting to see how I recover.

I did get a rather good book on power walking so I am going to have a good read, loads of tips in there

Re: Moonwalk training - my walk today


I've never done a longer walk than 10 miles: did the AIDS walk for years till they changed the day to Saturday from Sunday (bad day for me), but found that the companionship and chatter of the other walkers was a real help! I'm still laughing at that workman's comment!!

Re: Moonwalk training - my walk today


I am looking forward to the walk now Dandysmom, as you say the companionship and atmosphere should be great. I feel a bit better knowing what walking 20 miles is like.

How many of the AIDS walks did you do???

Hopefully in future I will do more walks for charity I was reading about a three day walk in China which covers 100 miles now THAT would be good, or walking the Inca trail

Re: Moonwalk training - my walk today


I did 6, Emma. All my tee shirts are almost worn out by now; last walk was in 2000. The Inca trail sounds fabulous...if, as I suspect, rather hilly and at high altitude! Not so sure if I'd want to do China, with their air and water pollution problems...
