Because the weather is usually nicer as spring is getting closer, I intend to go for walks and run outside more often... I can wait to get on my bike ... So this month my miles will be: Running Cycling at the gym Elliptical And walking...

A great topic! I love most of the ways to go. I am currently tracking running miles and swimming miles. I try to run 20~25 miles per week and swim 2~4 miles per week (when I have access to a lap pool). I also love biking, hiking, and walking too, and track them on the fitness tracker but I don't have weekly/monthly/yearly goals for those.

I'm working on walking to build up to hiking and hopefully running..
(if my right knee will allow)..
I used to run & run & run & run & run & run! Now it's all new.. I'm almost 50 and over weight and am learning what my body is capable of.. finding my confidence in my body again.

Mostly I walk my pups, but I do enjoy running, biking, and kayaking also.

For me, it's all about WHY I'm going.
If it's training, I swim/bike/run 'cause that's what I'm training for. Don't really like the run part, but I like achieving goals I set for myself.
If it's transportation, I bike when it's more than two or three miles and walk otherwise.
If it's vacation, I'm hiking or swimming at the beach. If it's a winter adventure, I may be on cross country skis or snowshoes.
The elliptical, dreadmill, stationary bike, perpetual pool - those to me are a special kind of hell and I am happy to do my part to make the line shorter for those of you who love them.

My favorite way to go the distance is to jog or do a fast walk with someone in my family. I work full time and sit most of the day so I love on my lunch break to do some stairs. I take 20 minutes and walk up and down the stairs in our 4 story office building. On the week-end I love to hike or go bike riding with my son and husband. I vacation 2 weeks every year in November in Victoria, BC Canada and the whole time I walk and hike this beautiful place.
