    Ugh -- only hit 11,470 today. Did park far away from my building and also did my long evening walk. But didn't get to walk at lunch due to too many meetings. Will do better tomorrow!

    Clarkindee - Months where I have had high step counts I would typically start my day by watching a show while on my treadmill, listening to my dog when she says we need to go for a walk, marching anytime I stop (and no one is watching) and even marching while reading emails and being on MFP. Needless to say I have not been doing any of that these past few months :(

    I go to bed early and get up early so I have time to take the dogs for a long walk before I have to dress to places
    many mornings I have 10,000 steps before I dress for the day

    I have averaged 105,000 - 110,000 steps a week since December 2013! I aim for no less than 15K a day! Where there is a will, there is a way!!! For days I dont feel like walking or hiking a mountain, I do zumba and that helps with my stpes. Anyone that rides a harley, you need to take off what tracks your steps! I can ride for a hour and get 7000 steps! SO TAKE IT OFF if you ride!!

    Thanks for the tips, guys. Today I:

    Parked far from my building
    Walked out at lunch to a cafeteria across campus
    Traded stairs for elevators
    Did my usual 45 minute power walk when I got home.
    Walked my son's visiting dog a little bit later at night. Good day!!!

    I am really proud of the progress I've made on my first week doing this! However, last night when I got home from my evening walk, my legs and feet were killing me! I have good shoes (or it would likely be worse). I finished the night soaking my feet in a tub of warm water and Epsom salts. I don't think my body knows what I'm doing with it. LOL
