    Good Challenge!!!! FitBit makes it easy and Fun!!!!! I try to top 11K a day. Better get busy today though! :-)
  • Hoping its not too late to join. Fitbit helps me keep tabs on my daily steps. Shooting for around 15,000 a day more if possible. So 15,000 x 31 days...465,000 steps ideally.

    12-1 26,944
    12-2 65,100 (best ever in one day)
    12-3 33,338
    12-4 18,901
    12-5 30,243
    And that should be up to date save today as it isn't over yet.

    Daily goal 11,000
    Daily avg. 11,105


    12/1 - 15,029 Lots of Treadmill :)
    12/2 - 11,542 Treadmill, Christmas decorating, cleaning.

    Some days its easy to get the steps in, other days its a struggle. Today I am determined to make it over 10,000 so I have already spent over 30 minutes on the treadmill and was also jogging in place while doing laundry. I am over 5,000 steps and its still before breakfast!

    Welcome to those who have just stepped in to our challenge ;)

    Moonracer - 65,000? Wow!! That is one of the highest counts I have seen here!

    July totals: 546,725 steps; 404,366 aerobic steps (3206 minutes); 250.12 miles
    August totals: 616,877 steps; 406,665 aerobic steps (3177 minutes); 282.13 miles

    October totals: 492,036 steps; 343,984 aerobic steps (2704 minutes); 225.10 miles
    November totals: 471,626 steps; 329,016 aerobic steps (2390 minutes); 215.76 miles

    December goals:
    Daily: A minimum of 14K steps and 11K aerobic steps every single day.
    Monthly: 550,000 steps; 400,000 aerobic steps (2700 minutes); 250 miles of walking.

    12/01: 31,260 steps; 28,892 aerobic steps (202 minutes); 14.30 miles - 12-mile marathon training walk
    12/02: 13,218 steps; 8,314 aerobic steps (69 minutes); 6.04 miles
    12/03: 10,013 steps; 4,376 aerobic steps (35 minutes); 4.58 miles - 2,500 miles since joining MFP
    12/04: 14,511 steps; 10,355 aerobic steps (74 minutes); 6.64 miles
    12/05: 13,604 steps; 11,081 aerobic steps (81 minutes); 6.22 miles
    12/06: 15,830 steps; 11,238 aerobic steps (79 minutes); 7.25 miles

    6-day goal: 106,452 steps; 77,419 aerobic steps (523 minutes); 48.39 miles
    6-day total: 98,436 steps; 74,256 aerobic steps (540 minutes); 45.03 miles

    Tried to go too fast on my long walk on Saturday - I was feeling the effects for three days afterwards, and had to take it a bit easy as a result. So I'm a little behind on my monthly goals, and only 3/6 on my daily goals. Lesson learned, though: stick with my original, more gradual, training plan, and don't try to force the speed too soon.
  • 12-6 41,908 steps

    For those of you wondering about how I managed 65,000 plus steps. I was up at 7 am and dared myself to see how many steps/miles I could get in that day. I basically stopped long enough to eat, restroom, and take care of my kids otherwise stepped all day. I have a " racetrack" that I do not allow then to destroy so that when the weather is sucky(like this weekend is supposed to be) I can still walk. For the record 65,100 steps for me is the equivalant of 26.65 miles, in other words I walked a marathon and kept on going.
