FitBit Challenge out there?

PinkNinjaLaura

Count me in!

Disclaimer: I have the Flex, which doesn't count flights of stairs.

Also want to point out that for those of us who are short we have to get more steps to get a mile (10K steps for me is only 4 miles) so there is a bit of a bias against short people for tracking mileage.

I have sent invites for you guys

skrakalaka, good for you. That little bit extra, pushing yourself the extra mile, is what we are all about.

lepert, I do know this. I am not super short, as for a woman I am average, but know my steps don't add up to nearly that of a 6'2" man. I just take it as the added challenge, I always hit my steps before I hit my miles. Yesterday, the were actually really close because I went running yesterday, but usually my miles are still seriously lacking when I hit 10,000.
Can you find just one large step up somewhere? A low wall barrier? A stepping stool? ... and do step ups instead of actual stairs?

Getting stairs in isn't a problem (wrote about that in the group so I won't repeat it), but the Flex just doesn't track them.
