Pedometer – total for entire Easter was 16,860 which is about one normal day!
Thoroughly enjoyed myself and loved the music.
A beauiful part of the world.

Julie’s starting point …
I walk to and from work but not always at the required speed. Do that this week.

Buy fruit Sunday and Wednesday to keep it appealing.
Buy a pedometer to measure 10,000 steps and especially the over-and-above

Don’t accept [...]
