    Count me in!!! This month I really plan to stay active and keep track of my steps - I've tried doing this challenge in the past, but end up dropping out halfway through...not this time!!!

    Goal for the month: at least 10,000 steps every day (and hopefully a few days close to 20,000)

    5/1: 10,108
