            Using a Fitbit and loving it!
 1 - 5,344 Drove for about 8 hours with family. Back very sore.
 2 - 21,238 Hike with family
 3 - 16.615
 4 - 18,057
 5 - 10,425
 6 - 23,409
 7 - 15,753
 8 - 6,446 Another long drive as vacation comes to an end.
 9 - 5,618 Busy with work; body struggling with the 4.5 hour time difference between here and Oregon.
 10 - 3,613 Busy with work
 11 - 3,502 Feeling lousy
 12 - 20,186 Trying to snap out of funk by hitting the gym; hoping it doesn't hit me back…
 13 - 3,272 Still not feeling great
 14 - 15,166 Feeling much better; go to gym.
 15 - 8,000 Went for a long walk and run with dog, then realized I had forgotten to take my Fitbit (pedometer). Grrr!
 16 - 13,232 Gym plus playing with my kids
 17 - 20,234
 18 - 12,404 First day of attempting to meet new goal of 13,000 steps, and already I failed! However, it could have been much worse; as of 8PM I had about 800 steps (yucky weather day) and was feeling pretty useless, so I went to the gym and stayed there 'till I reached 12,000.
 19 - 13,008 Another poor day that I attempted to salvage by lots of late night running after I put the kids to bed.
 20 - 15,161 Gym, long walk home from gym, errands, playing baseball with my son for 1.5 hours. Feet are sore.
 Average: 12,544
 Total: 250,886
 Goal: Didn't start out with one; generally, it's a minimum of 10,000 per day, but that got messed up a bit with all the travel and the funk I was in for a few days. Hopefully I'm back on track again.
 These numbers are all over the map! I think I'll aim for more consistency for the remaining days of this month…
 New goals (as of Aug. 18):
 400,000 steps for August.
 Daily minimum for remaining days: 13,000 steps (but this won't get me to 400,000, so I actually need to average a little more…).
 We'll see how that goes!0
