I'm currently under, but I'm ok with that.
I bet once I start working full time that will change.0 -
OK week 5, fitbit weekly update has me at 111k again. At least I am consistent. Running total after 35 days is 553k steps.
Half way there......Yee Haw :-)
I got on a bike for the first time in decades. Loved it. May be doing a few less steps this week ;-)0 -
Never mind Matilda, I'm sure you'll get there. When are you going back to work?
Jackie, great stuff!! Good news about the bike too.
Day 33 and I made it to the half way mark 11,629 steps and total 500,822. it will be another lowish day today as I'm working from home but will go for a walk at lunch time.0 -
Day 34 - 13,729
Day 35 - 15,034
Total - 529,585
Feeling really good about getting my steps in every day. I think there have only been 3 days so far when I haven't got to 10,000. The truth is that some days it's not so easy, but I make an effort to do it. I'll go for a walk in the middle of the day for 15 minutes, and then when I'm finished work if I'm at home and still not at 10,000 I will walk up the street to the shops and back, or do a couple of laps up and down to the garage or last night I jogged on the spot for 5 minutes to get me over 15,000. My DD said "Mum, what ARE you doing?"... LOL!!
So I'm going to keep it up and although I'm aiming for 15,000 every day, I'm happy to make it to somewhere over 10,000.0 -

Great steps Helen!!! Welcome back and congrats on the PB!!
Saturday I did 13,440
Sunday 14,960... I should have looked before I went to bed, would have paced out 15,000... Damn..
Today I'm at 14,606 so far, will get to 15,000 but probably not much over.
I'm loving this challenge, it's making me be more active in general when I had been a bit lazy for a while there...0 -

I think we are all doing great. It's something to aim for and if some days or weeks are a bit less than others then that's ok. It's the magic million at the end of the 100 days that we are trying to achieve.
So this week I clocked up the following:
Day 38 - 15,768
Day 39 - 21,235
Day 40 - 22,339
Day 41 - 20,116
Day 42 - 20,643
Total so far - 658,086
Average Steps - 15,668
Really happy with this week. I worked in the office every day so it was easy to get to 10,000 just commuting. But I also did a lap around Darling Harbour in the morning and afternoon Tuesday - Friday and went for a short walk at lunch time, so that's how I did the 20,000 days. It's not easy - I had to get an earlier train to make up the time, and got home a bit later. I know it's not much, probably an extra 15 minutes at each end, but every 15 minutes counts in the morning when I'm trying to get ready for work!!
Anyway, here we are at the weekend. I'll try to get 20,000 steps in today and tomorrow and see how I go with it again next week. I quite enjoy the walking as the weather has been just beautiful, but it's just the time that is the interfering part.0 -
Didn't make it over 20k on the weekend, I was just TIRED!!!
Gave myself Sunday off, but still made it to 15k. Pretty happy about that.

Total - 782,552 :happy:
Yay!! We are half way through the 100 days!! I am feeling very good about it. Think I have only had about 3 days under the 10k and a few days over 20k. Pleased that my average is 15,651 per day. Before this challenge I was only really averaging about 5,000 steps a day due to working from home a lot and basically becoming a bit lazy.. ugh.. Now even if I am working from home I make an effort to go for a walk and get some basic activity. It's very easy with my job to sit on my butt all day.
I think we are all doing really well. Go Team!!0 -

This week is forecast to rain a lot. I'm working at the office, so I'll get 10,000 steps in a day but doubt I'll be over 15,000 if the weather isn't good. I don't mind getting wet if I'm not going anywhere, but not too keen when I'm dolled up for the office. So we will have to see..0 -
Day 53 - 20,016... that was a surprise!!
Total - 839,984
Working from home today, went for a quick walk this morning and will go out again at lunch time for another short walk but can't do after work as I have late Skype meetings. Will probably just get the 10,000 done today.0
