So I have been using a pedometer since last December and I have been having great success. Then I decided to check out what google pedometer says I am running vs what my pedometer has me doing. Evidently my pedometer is not all that accurate. According to g. pedometer I am running an extra mile in the morning than I thought I was. Kind of feels good saying that I get up and run 4 miles in the morning before work instead of 3 miles.

    I have a pedometer too. How do you use google pedometer? I use mine mainly for when I do lawn care and walking my son to preschool.

    I used GPed to layout a half mile walking route around my apartment. It's really cool.

    I've also used it when I went on longer walks just to see how far we actually went.
