Hey guys! I ve seen challenges here for 20000 plus steps.. Frankly I can barely manage 10000 a day just once a week. My average is 7000 a day. Anyone here want to participate in hitting 10000 a day? You can add me or we can post end of day counts here everyday for August atleast? Go!

    Almost at my step goal

    I get about 16000 steps a day. You would be surprised how making yourself walk a longer way to something or standing in place taking steps will do for you.

    I generally do 10,000 but use the step counter on my phone, which I don't have on me at work. Wonder how many steps I take wandering around the office?

    I suppose that could easily vary between 3000 to 5000 or more. Our office is 3000 sq ft and that's what my count is.

    I don't hit 10,000 everyday but if I join others with the same goal it is more motivating

    I was at 3,000 on average day a month ago. Currently aiming for 6000 a day which currently seems to require effort but is doable. Work from home desk job means I have to really try to get steps in.

    Hi tintin and kyana! That's exactly my problem too. I am at an average of 7000 steps and need to up the game. Let's share our daily steps here so we can motivate each other to walk more.
    Step count on 5th August- 6700.

    When I am at home, I try for 10,000 every day.

    I'm traveling through the 12th, though, and my time really isn't my own until then, so it varies a lot. (Plus I'm fighting a nagging hip injury -- Am trying to take it easy when that goes from 'ache' to 'pain!')

    Yesterday, I hit 1000 miles walked since starting with my Fitbit on 18 January!

    Oh! and I'm a desk-job work-from-home person, too.

    That's quite an achievement... Specially with the hip injury! Just shows you are stronger than the excuses! Keep going...

    I easily hit 10,000 a day. It's the Summer holidays here (I'm a teacher) and I have 3 young kids and we're out every day. Just in a day at work I hit around 7000 as I don't tend to sit down.

    I use fitbit and I try to keep my weekly 7 day average around 100,000.
