    Fantastic - everyone is doing so well. I'm at 3.75 due to 3 lost days and injury but it's feeling much better and I have a plan to allow for rest and still reach 50. Keep up the great work!

    Bonnie...50-3.75 = 46.25 to go in 24 days

    Hi all! It's great to see how wonderfully everyone is doing! I'm going to check out for a couple of days, to get my family moved. I'll walk/jog as planned today and Sunday as planned, and take tomorrow off for the actual move day. Will be wishing everyone great success and fun walks. Enjoy the fall weather and take a hike - wish I could!

    I will be back Monday, ready to see how great everyone has done.

    Peace
    Bonnie

    I'm in too...I use a pedometer every day and strive for 10,000 steps which I sometimes don't get. Found a formula to convert steps into calories burned which is helpful when tracking my cardio exercise stats so I will use part of that formula to calculate miles for this challenge. For those interested, there are 5,280 steps in a mile...so that means if I do 8,800 steps per day for 30 days I'll successfully complete the challenge. Who is with me???

    This varies from person to person based on your stride length. Try walking a know distance and counting how many steps that you walked. If you walked 100ft and it took 50 steps your stride length is 24" or 2'. A mile is 5,280 ft long. With a stride length of 2 ft you would need 2,640 steps to equal one mile.

    I don't want to see anyone shorting themselves miles!

    Good luck everyone!
