    Another month, another challenge!

    Our 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.

    Welcome to our Monthly Step Challenge!

    2 questions.
    1) Is there away to add steps to the Fitness Pal Diary

    2) Do any of those fitness bracelets automatically sync with Fitness Pal? I have an app on my Android phone (Walking Mate) but I don't always have the phone with me.
    Thank you for any advice.

    on October 10th and 11th took a mini vacation and rested a lot so not many steps but did get in some swimming (75 minutes) to compensate for lack of steps.

    1) I do not think there is an offical way to enter steps. I enter time I spend on specific things such as walking or dancing.

    2) I am not sure. I have one of those simple step counters - it just counts steps. But I know there are others here who have fitbits and such.

    I didn't know about the October challenge. I just came off of a corporate challenge and want to at least maintain my 13K steps per day average. This sounds like a great way to do it. Do I just log them and post them by week or month?
