Another Month - Another Challenge!

Challenge is to do 10,000 steps in a day. You can do this for any one day or try for the entire month. Jump right in at any time! You can set a lower or higher goal if you wish. Our main goal is to keep activate every day!

It's easy to join - Just post here to begin!

You will need a step counter to keep track of your steps and then post your results daily here.

    My May average is just over 13,000. I am hoping to do more biking so I think I will set my goal for 12,500 for June.

    I recently have started doing this! My question is can we log any of this as exercise?

    Vivky, Bunnygreen and dtntti6 - You are all def ready for this month!

    I count the actual time I spend exercising - logging a 20 minute walk rather the the steps.

    Here are some links I found on calculating calories

    I'd like to try again this month! I had a goal of 430 000 steps last month and fell pretty short (399 655). So this months goal is to surpass May at the very least and to hopefully hit 430 000. My days can range from 2800 steps to 35 000 steps - I have to focus on increasing those lower step days.
