June Daily Step Challenge

I actually started doing this same program for work on 6/4! So I missed the first few days and just joined here. Here are the numbers since then. I usually get around 5000 on my normal day. This does not include my cardio at the gym.
I'd love to hear tips and tricks on how others get more steps in during the day. I have a desk job and a long commute and have a hard time getting steps on those days. I do take several breaks at work to walk around the building and do a 2 mile loop at lunch if the weather is good.
Welcome!
I put my step counter on first thing in the morning and take it off just before I go to bed. The only time I take it off is when I am biking. To add steps I do things like parking a bit firther away, going to the restroom on another floor and marching or jogging while waiting for something in the microwave or brushing my teeth. I also find I no longer combine trips - I will go get the trash bin, come back and then walk down the driveway again to get the mail.0 -
Count me in I walk but don't have a clue as to how many steps I take and my son has challenged me to walk the 'West Highland Way' with him, 95miles so I need to get a lot of walking practice and start drinking lots of water.:drinker:
To count your steps, I have found the inexpensive step coutners at Walmart work fine.0 -

How do you come back and add each day to original date without doing a quote? I do not know how ?
You can either copy and paste your previous entry or, if you select quote, delete the brackets with the word quote and /quote at both the beginning and end of the entry. Then make any additions you want.
Thank you so much! I will give it a try.0 -
