Endor Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 I enjoy long romantic walks to the fridge....well it all counts in this PvP!!! This is a walking PvP that will be running during the current 4 week challenge from Jan 4 to Jan 31 2016 5 levels:Titanium - 128 km's (80 miles)Gold - 96 km's (60 miles)Silver - 64 km's (40 miles)Bronze - 32 km's (20 miles)Copper - 19 km's (12 miles) PVP Rules 1. Pick a level above that will stretch you but you think you can make. During the challenge walk that many km's in 4 weeks. 2. Sign up in this sheet and track your km/miles during the 4 week challenge. 3. Specify after your name either (walking) or (pedometer) depending on if you will be tracking either just specific "I'm going for a walk" distances (walking) or I will track steps by wearing a pedometer/fitbit/etc. (pedometer). It's easier to get more mileage using a pedometer so we want to keep you accountable to hit those higher medals 4. Any amusing walking gifs are most welcome Anyone is welcome to join in from any guild, including recruits Theme song for this PvP, it applies to those late night fridge visits Quote Endor, LVL 45 Half-Elf Ranger PR and Motivation Log | Current Battle Log Feb-March 2022 Challenge Link to comment

suzyQlou Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Yay! A challenge that's ready to go for January. I've had my eye on you guys since last challenge when I was gifted a lovely fitbit. Going to put it to good use and join you this time around. Any specific rules I should know about - or do I just enter what the fitbit says for miles at the end of the day? In the interest of fairness, I do promise to take off the fitbit band when playing the piano (blown away by the variety of amusing animated walking gifs) 3 Quote suzyQlou * Ranger Old Challenges: #1(2015) * #2 * #3(push ups) * #4 * #5(food) * #6 * #7(2016)* #8(nerdiversary) * #9 * 10(animal) * Battle Log * 11(2017) * 12(garden) * 13 * 14(biking) * 15 * 16 * 17 * 18 * 19(2018) * 20(2019) * 21 Link to comment

That's funny. I've noticed it gives me a step when I buckle my seatbelt. Overall though, I think it is fairly accurate. 1 Quote Wisdom 22.5 Dexterity 13 Charisma 15 Strength 21 Constitution-13 "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind' Luke 10; 27 Link to comment

Not compulsary to update daily but at least once a week is a good idea and the more often the better for motivation I find. Good to have you along for the journey 1 Quote Endor, LVL 45 Half-Elf Ranger PR and Motivation Log | Current Battle Log Feb-March 2022 Challenge Link to comment
Endor Posted January 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 January is what sets me up for the rest of year so I'm going for Titanium. Specific walks only, don't have a fitbit but do have a very active puppy who's going to love me this month!

suzyQlou Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Welcome.Does the fitbit count your steps when you play piano? That's funny. I've noticed it gives me a step when I buckle my seatbelt. Overall though, I think it is fairly accurate. Yeah, the fitbit is pretty funny. It's still a new toy to me, so I haven't found all the tricks yet. Piano is the only real laughable mistake I've found. I don't play every day, but a half hour really ramped up my steps one day. I like the seatbelt buckling. It's like a bonus for safe drivers I'm going to shoot for 100 miles this challenge. That's between 8000 and 9000 fitbit steps a day. Somehow walking with a fitbit doesn't sound nearly as rewarding as walking with a puppy, though. Happy fitbits don't wag their tails and give smooshy kisses. 1 Quote suzyQlou * Ranger Old Challenges: #1(2015) * #2 * #3(push ups) * #4 * #5(food) * #6 * #7(2016)* #8(nerdiversary) * #9 * 10(animal) * Battle Log * 11(2017) * 12(garden) * 13 * 14(biking) * 15 * 16 * 17 * 18 * 19(2018) * 20(2019) * 21 Link to comment
Nnimn Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 I'm finally back on NF so I'm in and my puppy will likewise be thrilled. I've been WAAAAYYY too lazy lately and she is getting stir crazy. If we have more weeks of mostly negative temps it'll be hard but I've got to get back in the swing of things so I'll really push myself and go for Gold. 1 Quote 1st - 2nd - 3rd - 4th - Current ChallengeNinja AssassinNo one believes our excuses but us... so let's stop making them and go accomplish something!

PinkNinja Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 I'm in! But it'll be hard to update regularly due to no cell service/no internet without driving. I have a JawboneUp but it doesn't work very well without service. But I can walk! *edit* or harder than I thought because I can't figure out how to edit the spreadsheet on my phone!

Your post both inspired and guilted me (thinking of my pup) so I got in a quick mile with the Doggel during my lunch break and, as I did not freeze to death after all, I'll go for a couple more after work. 3 Quote 1st - 2nd - 3rd - 4th - Current ChallengeNinja AssassinNo one believes our excuses but us... so let's stop making them and go accomplish something!

A dog is handy motivation too. I briefly tried to teach my cats to walk on leashes, but it ended with me following them and them not caring where I wanted them to go.

NeverThatBored Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 I went on my first snow walk of the season in 12 degrees. They don't plow the walking path at work, so I may have to start going on morning walks to make up the difference once the snow buries it. 4 Quote Gargoyle Ranger | Level 49 2022 challenges: 49 (current) 2015-2021 challenges: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 |15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 || 26 | 27 | 28 | 29 | 30 | 31 | 32 | 33 || 34 | 35 | 36 | 37 | 38 | 39 | 40 | 41 | 42 || 43 | 44 | 45 | | 46 | 47 | 48 || My epic quest | MEATBALL WARS You don't get better at anything unless you start doing it.

KnitJoy Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Between being on my feet all day for work and walking with a friend to the coffee shop I walked 3.08 miles. Not bad for a first day, 4 more of those makes a good week! 3 Quote Link to comment

Basement Cat Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Just got back from another walk. 4.2 miles. Funny thing: my hat is lined with (fake) fur, and it was so cold that little icicles formed in front of my eyes from my breath!
