Lets get moving-100,000 steps in a week

Good Morning Fellow Weight Loss People.
This morning I decided I would start a challenge using my fitbit. I wear it faithfully every day (my husband says I am addicted to it) so today I thought I would push myself to see if I can do 100,000 steps in 7 days. Is there anybody else that would like to join me using the following format. If 100,000 is too many then by all means set your own goal.

Goal - 100,000 steps

    I am trying to get back into the swing of things. I have really been slack since school ended in June. My goal in August is to be more disciplined and move more. I don't know if I can do 100,000 in a week but I will try. Thanks for the idea and the motivation!

    I have a pedometer for my ds so I will use that to track my steps. I am hoping to get a fitbit by the end of the month.

    Do we post our steps to this thread at the end of each day?

    Thanks again!

    I'm going to give this a try. That's roughly 14,300 steps a day. I normally can do 11,000 a day. Gonna need to find a way to get in those extra 3300 a day. Wooo!

    I would guess that it is about 50 miles.

    I'm in though I woke up late today so normally by now I have at last 2,500 steps in if not more. Just means more miles outside when I run :)

    This is a lot harder than I thought. I think my week's goal by August 7th will be 30,000 steps. That's the best I can do this week.

    I'd love to join in on this, hope I'm not too late! I wear a pedometer and this is the good motivator I need to up my step count (I'm normally around 12,000/day).
