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!

    Goal is 6000 steps (for now.)

    I use the Pacer app on my phone.

    Clearly not up to par, yet. :) Today will be better as I'm doing a lot of walking to bus stops.

    I get 15k+ every day! Even more on days when I run.

    I use a cheapie pedometer that only records the last day.
