good stuff Anna , thanks for posting and we are on our way to the Space Station ...I did receive the free pedometer ...could NOT getting it to work , till my Brother suggested to pull the little piece of plastic away from the battery area...voila !!( not very techy ) I use my record of weekly 1/2 marathon training , add and add a few extra kilometers of all the non - weekly recorded steps as dog walking , stair walking etc. ...lets have fun and join Robert Thirsk . The picture of the pamphlet with the pedometer shows Robert and his Mom at the Vancouver, BC , sea wall ...I have logged a few steps there, when living on the coast :-)

You're not kidding. I haven't yet had a chance to log in my walking - as I don't have a pedometer (not sure if I'll get one - but doesn't matter). I may have to carry my hand held GPS with me so I can log my walking (plan to do a big hike around Montreal on Wed - walk to the one clinicthat I refuse to go to anymore due to them only see people with digital mammograms - and I can't afford $350 CDN for that - pick up my all medical records - then trek half way across Mont Royal to where another breast surgeon is. This all has to be done before my 09h30!!! I hope I have time to sit and have a cafe along the way (pass a few nice ones along the walk). I'm hoping it's not raining that day - like it has been lately - otherwise I'll be one soaked .... Fat Cat

Anna Fat Cat , alternatively you can log in the time you spent walking ...so really no need for a pedometer , just a watch or an pump !! ...except if it is FREE :-) ...tell me more about the mammogram ..is this a routine, regular, yearly mammogram or ?? You want to send me a " private reply or ??" . N.
PS Gord and I collected to date $ 788.00 for Diabetes Summer Surge , 69 th BD and lots of promises of chqs ...whoopy !!
We had rain this afternoon too and hail ...now gorgeous again , signed fuzzy peach
