If you are interested in challenging yourself, as well as challenging and encouraging others to work towards the goal of 20,000 steps a day, this thread is for you.
The challenge will run the entire month of August. If there is interest, we can continue on to September or even raise the stakes to 30,000 steps.
Whether you are wanting to lose some weight or get fit, this challenge is for you. Even if you still have a ways to go to get to 20,000 steps, you still have time in July, to keep moving forward.
Everyday you will be asked to post your step total. It is a very good way of holding yourself accountable.

Would this be based on a weekly average? Or minimum daily challenge of 20,000?0

And those of you watching the thread need to join us, even if you haven't been close, yet. Challenging yourself is not failure. Failure is not even trying.
Glad to see the turnout thus far. There is plenty of room for more people.0 -
There is still plenty of room on the 20,000 steps a day bus. Come on, folks. Give it the ole college try.0

Ugh! I keep second guessing. I have three trips in Aug. At least two days flying all day, and a possible drive cross country. Regardless... I Still want to "give it the ole college try". Just count me in already. I do enjoy a GOOD challenge.0

Who knows, you may just surprise yourself, even on those busy work days.0 -
I'm in. I hover around 17-18k per day now so this is great motivation to step it up.0
