    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.
    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?

    Most people try to log daily, but do whatever works for you. Being part of the challenge is really motivating for me and helps me to increase my steps!
