Just signed up for the Frozen Feet challenge - to try to walk or run a mile outdoors every day of January.

I would extend this as an invitation to join me, adapted in whatever way makes sense. I get that some of you are in the HOT season now (I am not). Also a mile might be way not healthy for some - so maybe pick a distance that feels good to you. The idea being to actually be outdoors daily, moving your body, being alive in the world.

I regret buying a Fitbit device. Not only does it kinda suck but now the data it collected on me is going to change hands as well.
