    Stressed from work and didn't walk a lot
    Sun 2009
    Mon 6889
    Tues 10053
    Wed 8607
    Thurs 11580
    Fri 6827 so far ..,

    For those of you reaching 18-20,000 steps I was curious how you are doing that daily if you are working a typical 8-9 hr or more job? Any suggestions?!

    Also has anyone had issues with the accuracy of their Fitbit step counting? Specifically the zip ? It's seems as if mine is way under.

    Assuming 1800 steps is a mile and that you can walk 3 miles per hour
    Get up early 20 min walk =1800
    Shower breakfast then walk an hour to work = 5400
    Take every opportunity to walk at work then lunchtime 30 mins walk = 2700
    Then walk an hour home =5400
    Walk 10 mins before dinner =900

    Then 20 mins before going to bed there you go 18000+

    Hi, can anyone recommend a DVD or book that helps you find the right walking form/posture? I work at a desk all day and have been told I have bad running form. I gained 20 lbs over the last couple of years, and would like to start with walking to get back into shape because I've tried other exercises but I always feel really exhausted and sleepy afterwads. I'm really excited to join everyone.

    Just walk as tall as you can head up swing your arms a little but most of all smile

    I'm kind of trying to walk more, I've not been concerned with the days I do walk it's the off days that bother me so I'm thinking maybe I should have a target.
    So we are 12 days in I've done just over 155000 steps plus 27k of running
    What do guys think a target for he month should be ?
