    I'd like to join in. My step counts have been a little low the last 3 weeks or so. Too busy, too rainy, too many excuses. Time to "step it up" so to speak. :)

    With just getting a fit bit last week I will probably post my steps by the week. It is great how it tracks and totals it for you. Still making over 10,000 per day average
