New month, new challenge!

Our challenge is to do 10,000 steps in a day. You can do this for any one day or try for the entire month. Jump right in at any time! You can set a lower or higher goal if you wish. Our main goal is to keep activate every day!

It's easy to join - Just post here to begin! You can also jump in anytime during the month, too.

You will need a step counter to keep track of your steps and then post your results daily here.

Welcome to our Monthly Step Challenge!

    I'm in! I dont have a fit bit but will track with my phone. My goal is to take 3000 to 6000 steps a day for the first 2 weeks of November, then 6000 to 10,000 a day the last 2 weeks! (I have a job that at times is extremely physical, other times I sit behind a computer all day :(

    I'm in! I have a fitbit, so I'm ready. Out of curiosity, I checked my steps for Oct, and I clocked 341,148, which averages out to 11k steps a day. My (personal) goal is to beat that number.

    I am in...I have done these challenges in the past & really enjoy them. They do get me moving more. I am in for an average of 10,000 steps a day for November. (I know there will be days when I don't get that many, but am hoping they will average that.) I am 68 and use a Fitbit.
    Day--steps--total steps--average
    11-1: 7021--7021--7021
    11-2: 10,555--17,576--8,788
