    Wow, Grandma Jackie. How are you getting 24,000+ steps? That's gre

    I just got on board today and my pedometer on/off button got bumped a couple times today and didn't track all my steps, but I recorded 8,535, though it should probably be more like 9,000.

    Tomorrow is another day! :D

    I had a step counter with a huge reset button that I would accidentally bump nearly every day :( That was so frustrating that I actually took it apart and removed the big button on the outside. I then had to use a pen to push the tiny little button on the inside but it was def worth it.

    Sept 1 -- 12,058
    Sept 2 -- 13,572
    Sept 3 -- 6710
    Sept 4 -- 3457 (biked today)

    Biking does make it harder to get all of those steps in.

    This is an easy one. I have been here since April 3rd, 2013 and have 3,259,572 steps in that time which is an average of 21,030 per day including the past two months with a diabetic ulcer and broken foot (still recovering from the broken foot). I have only had three days out of 155 days under 10,000 and those days were not far from it. My best day since the foot problem, with one of those hospital boot things was 30,169 steps.

    Count me in !

    Def some huge challenges but you are still getting fantastic step counts in :)

    that's great work! I'd be in on this, but I've recently started focusing on strength training instead of walking. I still have my daily goal set at 10k, but so far this month I've been under it most days. Last month I did over 290k steps though... soon enough I'll be working on my cardio endurance again. Maybe I can join you guys in October :)

    How do you log steps throughout the day with a pedometer into activity? I don't see just step counting as a choice? I actually have a fit bit that I wear all day long but I don't know how to plug it into my diary
