Question: How do you get 12 hours of walking? Do you guys count when you spend the day walking around the fair or Disneyland or something? How do you figure out 12 hours, as bits of that has to be sitting down eating or resting. How do you count the hours?

So y'all are ignoring my question? How do you count "walking" time? Is it when you are walking enough to get a bit of a cardio? Or do you also count the wandering around, at a fair or a park? Even tho that's mostly NOT a cardio walk?

If I'm on my feet for 12 hours (or 10 of 12), moving around, I'll not count all the minutes but cut it back to 2/3 or 1/2 depending on how active that time was. (12 hours would be 720 minutes) For me it is a personal incentive, considering that I'm prone to depressive times/days when I literally don't move except to get food, or the mail. I've never claimed that all my minutes are cardio. (some are, of course) I don't see this as a contest or that there is any way to compare minutes, we are just here to cheer each other on.

Sorry, Costa, I thought your question was directed specifically towards Seamonkey. For me, walking time is when I go out and take a walk for a period longer than 20 minutes or so. Like last night, I was on the trail with a friend and our dogs and we walked for about 40 minutes. I don't count the "normal" walking I do, such as from the parking lot to work and back, only walking that I made a concentrated effort to get off my butt and do. If I was at an amusement park, I would count it rather in the way Seamonkey does. Think of how long I was on my feet on the whole, and how much of that was active movement. It depends on the person and how they want to count it. I don't think Yankee counts any of her walking time and she walks a lot!!

Hmm... well, I don't count any of my walking time, unless it's faster walking and more than 20 minutes, too. I don't think, personally, that the 8 hours I spent at the fair was "working out" and that's what I was wondering, since this is the workout thread. Oh well, I'll keep doing what I'm doing and counting only the "workout" minutes that I do.

Costacat, I think it's up to the individuals here. For me, I only count "gym" minutes and not bicycling, walking, etc. -- but that's ONLY because it's a decision I made that I wanted to keep a running tally that lets me know how often I've made it to the gym during a week, month, year. It's completely up to you how you want to track your workouts in this thread. All movement is good movement, and all movement is a workout in my mind! (By the way, I'm on the road again. I did go to the gym last Thursday but haven't had time to add it all up, so when I work out again I'll add in last Thursday's gym time.)

After my knee surgery I was told all walking was good! And wait til you are my age and you may see things differently as well. At my age, I could take chair exercise, or longevity stick which is all bending, turning, stretching, or Tai Chi and I'd count it as healthy movement/ for me, for my age and my condition.

I'm traveling, too! If I wasn't so exhausted from getting up at 3:30 am, I'd go for a nice long walk. It's lovely here, and it's still broad daylight! (In Palo Alto!)
