in Challenges
Anyone up for a 10,000 steps a day challenge? I work in an office and sit at a desk most of the day, so this would be a great challenge for me. So for the entire month of May I am going to attempt to get in at least 10,000'steps per day every day. Anyone that would like to join is more than welcome.

    I'm in. I've been trying to do this but some days not doing so good. I hope by joining you in the challenge I will make myself do it every day. It'll make me more accountable.

    It's May 1st!!! April showers bring May flowers, well I have May Showers here!! Hoping it will clear up so I can get a walk in today.

    I am looking forward to our 10,000 step challenge. If you don't get 10,000 steps in a day in, don't beat yourself up, try harder the next day. Try to think of creative ways to get steps in for example, I bought a pedaler to put under my desk at work or I pace in my office sometimes. If you have creative ideas, please share with the rest of us. One of my biggest issues is, I forget to put my step counter on in the morning right away or I take it off when I get home from work.

    Rules: Don't be judgmental of others, encourage each other and think positive!!!
    You can post your steps daily or weekly if you like. And don't hesitate to share your stories of how you met your goal or what went awry that day :)

    Good Luck everyone!!!
    We can do it!

    Today I've done 31,727. Not the end of the day yet but don't expect it to increase much more.

    Wow! That's great! I'll be lucky if I hit 10,000. I need to find more active activities I think ;)

    Hey everyone! I'm posting early as I will not be online later. I managed to get 13,046 steps in today. This is huge for me!! I'm very excited. My daily average is usually about 5,000. It was raining this morning when I wanted to go for a walk, so I ended up using a walking video on YouTube, turned the volume down, turned on my own music and walked their routine. It worked out great. It did finally stop raining so I ended up going for a walk with a friend also. So it turned out to be a great day. Tomorrow will be the true challenge for me though, back to work and the dreaded desk :s I hope everyone had a great day. Can't wait to see how everyone did.
