Ative 10

Strangely, the app doesn't seem to work that way for me. Naturally, I have to stop or slow down to cross roads, and it's not a problem. At the end of my walk it calculates everything and tells me that the total number of minutes I walked was, e.g. 45, and the number of brisk minutes within that period was, e.g. 32. If I forget to turn the app off when I get home, it will carry on adding non-brisk minutes to my total.

Thankyou for your reply Bathsheba - Mine works in the same way as yours I think , but I am setting my targets as two ten minute walks a day and when (if) i achieve them I can get a 'walking warrier bronze award after a week - silver after two and I was hoping to build these up and go for 'Gold.

Ah well you're ahead of me Mary - it's as much as I can do to complete one brisk walk a day . Though, to be fair, it's usually longer than 10 minutes.

I use it, and have discovered that I can overcome the having to stop or slow problem by Ealing around my house , or in good weather my garden ! I am fortunate that the design of my bungalow allows for a circular route and I can keep an eye on the time by walking towards the kitchen clock. I aim to do at least one minute over the ten to make sure !
