How Old Is Too Old To Exercise? Lately the topic of exercise for seniors has been on my mind. Twice in the past week, friends of my age, have made quite negative comments to me, about seniors exercising. Firstly, a friend asked me how to begin an exercise program. The second comment, was when a […]
Maxine’s Challenge Week 8
Time for a Maxine’s Challenge update. I can’t believe we’re at Day 3 of Week 8 already. As usual I’m loving the exercise programs, and have been following them almost to the letter.

Walk 8/150 Dargile State Forest
Today I had a welcome day off, so I headed out early to tick off another walk, for the 150 Walks in Victoria Challenge. This time, I headed over to Heathcote, about 45 minutes from home, by car, to walk in the Dargile State Forest. The forest features mainly stringybark, box and iron bark trees […]

Powder Magazine Walk #Heathcote
I’ve been aware and concerned that it has been a while since I last posted here, but I was horrified to see that it’s been six weeks. Where did that six weeks go? I’ve still been exercising but also have been really busy with work…and with life. So, just decided to take a little time […]
