Looking for Fitbit connections

Hello everyone!

I am looking for fitbit connections (ideally people who use it just for steps...not in running!) to challenge each other. I just got back from vacation last week where I was doing 17,000-20,000 steps a day. Since getting back home it is a bit more challenging (MN weather does not make it desirable to walk outside right now).

I'm looking for others who are looking to challenge themselves currently around the 8,000 - 12,000 mark.

You interested? Here is my profile URL: http://www.fitbit.com/user/249QRR

    I'll add you. My goal is 10,000 steps per day by walking. I don't make it every day, but I try.

    I'm in MN too! It was beautiful out today! We should have a ton of snow by Tuesday night! YUCK! I aim for 10,000 steps a day. During the work week I get 10,000 if I go to the gym too. Weekends are harder. Today I got my steps as I went shopping and walked around the mall a few times:) I would love to get 15,000 a day! Add me if you would like:)

    I would play but you guys are a bit more active than me. I shoot for 7000 steps a day and 10,000 steps is an awesome and rare day for me.

    But I live in Wisconsin :o)

    I am using another pedometer not Fitbit but it is quite accurate though.I was doing 10000 steps back in Jan but now I have to start again. I can do 6000-7000 steps but I can stretch it to 8000 per day if I try harder. I am in for the challenge.

    I'd like to join the challenge. I've had a fitbit since January and love it! My goal is to average 10,000 steps/day over a week. I also joined a walking to Disney group. That will take months for me but should be fun and keep me motivated!

    Add me on fitbit if you like. It keeps me motivated comparing steps with friends.

    Oh, it is no game! Add if you would like....I'm looking for people to connect with who will not shame me with 20,000 steps a day :) I promise not to shame you!

    I'm sorry, I didn't mean to confuse anyone! I'm not looking for a formal challenge, just to meet fellow walkers who have similar goals to support each other.
