    Just found this board. I have been walking 2.5 to 2.75 miles a day 5 days a week. I'm on a plateau since Thanksgiving. Do I go faster or for a longer period of time. I walk at 3.7 mph for 45 minutes...

    I just realized I haven't posted anything in a few days. Sorry all, lets see if I can fix that.
    12-15 37,080 14.98 miles
    12-16 40,315 16.58 miles
    12-17 30,114 13.17 miles
    12-18 30,124 12.41 miles
    12-19 30,621 12.37 miles

    12-21 22,113 8.99 miles
    12-22 28,948 11.69 miles

    220.98 miles from previous weeks, adding in these numbers give me a total of 326.54 miles. I have beaten my goal of 300 miles in a month and still have a few days to go.

    Can't say that I do. No car and I walk to work(2 1/2 to 3 miles depending on route each way) plus I work in an enviroment where I walk alot(retail). I usually have around 20-25,000 steps in by 2 pm anything beyond that is straight walking for the fun of it.

    Ah! That makes sense. What a boat load of walking. How do your feet handle it? At a certain point my feet just don't feel like they should go any further. I have a treadmill desk and use it 2-4 hours a day, depending on how my feet feel that day.

    Actually they handle it pretty well most days, don't get me wrong I do have off days though. I also have days where I just can't convince the body to go, that day last week which I did only a little over 22,000 steps was one of those days. I have been car-less for almost 2 years now so my endurance for long distances is pretty good.

    Hi All, I am in again too.
    I am very busy working some part-time jobs, one of which is seasonal and the other is busier now. All are relatively active. So I have been wearing a pedometer.
    Saturday December 1st 12,000 steps
    Sunday December 2nd was a rest day with 50 minutes of Aquafit and a 10 minute trip to the grocery store.
    Monday December 3rd 8,000 steps
    Tuesday December 4th 13,000 steps some from a 15 minute walk from the bus.
    Friday December 7th 30 minute walk. 8,000+ steps
    Monday December 31 1 hour walk over 10000 steps.
