    October Goals: 400,000 steps for the month. Minimum of 10,000 steps per day.

    This is the last month before we change back to standard time. The days are already getting shorter so the loss of the extra evening daylight hour will be really missed. Will have to get more steps at work and the gym, or be stuck circling the driveway after dark. :laugh:
