    I sent invitations to the group for all :)

    So, I am thinking, since we are all in different time zones, I will just continue to post challenges in advance a bit and each challenge will be for a specific day (ex. Saturday.) We will all be doing the same challenges, just finishing at different times.

    So, here is the challenge for next week, starting on Monday morning and ending Friday night (this week will require a little note taking/keeping track and you have 5 days to complete this - deadline is Friday night):
    60,000 steps (averaging 12,000 a day)
    100 flights of stairs (averaging 20 a day)
    30 miles (averaging 6 a day)
    50 very active minutes (averaging 10 a day)
    Stay within your calorie goal and meet your requirements for water

    I'd like to join too! Is there a group? Even though I'm doing Insanity I'm going for evening runs just to get those steps in LOL.

    Count me in!

    Disclaimer: I have the Flex, which doesn't count flights of stairs.

    Also want to point out that for those of us who are short we have to get more steps to get a mile (10K steps for me is only 4 miles) so there is a bit of a bias against short people for tracking mileage. :smile:

    I have sent invites for you guys :)

    skrakalaka, good for you. That little bit extra, pushing yourself the extra mile, is what we are all about.

    lepert, I do know this. I am not super short, as for a woman I am average, but know my steps don't add up to nearly that of a 6'2" man. I just take it as the added challenge, I always hit my steps before I hit my miles. Yesterday, the were actually really close because I went running yesterday, but usually my miles are still seriously lacking when I hit 10,000.
    Can you find just one large step up somewhere? A low wall barrier? A stepping stool? ... and do step ups instead of actual stairs?

    Getting stairs in isn't a problem (wrote about that in the group so I won't repeat it), but the Flex just doesn't track them.
