    I am in too, I love walking, got a Chocolate Labrador for company and armed with a fitbit Alta :) I get 10k a day plus but on Monday (my day off) I double it, today I went for a long 20 km hike, I have 10 kg (20 lbs) to lose by August preferably ;)

    HI! I am going to join in with this challenge. I have a misfit flash and have just joined MFP. I have a job where I sit all day :/ but average 6500 steps when I go for a walk. If I add another walk I can make 10000.

    My job is very sedentary, I work 50+ hours a week sitting down, I have got into a habit of going for a long walk before work then grab another walk during break. We need the motivation and this group is ideal :)

    I am SO in!

    Anyone with a fitbit can add me (morrowcan@gmail.com)
    I need that extra push of seeing others getting their steps in so I can be motivated. I've been in a funk.

    Yes fitbit folk can add me as well https://www.fitbit.com/user/4MJPZK

    I'd love to join this challenge! I track using a fitbit charge, and average about 5-6k a day. I'm a hospice nurse, so lots of driving from visit to visit, but now that the weather is nice I'm committed to walking around the block before each patient visit!

    I started this morning 5km walk before work where I will be sitting till my breaks, I plan to pop to the shop in one break and take my dog out for another walk later, so far I am on 7,268, my goal is to get above 10.000 steps which is challenging with my sedentary job lol Good luck everybody! :)

    Hi there
    Just back to myfitnesspal after a spell away, so this sounds like a great challenge to begin with - count me in xx

    I have to walk about 4 miles today as a matter of course, and will be on the treadmill at the gym walking uphill for 45 mins so should get 10,000 steps in that way, but will add some extra walking in (perhaps taking the long route) to get to my 14,000 goal.

    Count me in!! I usually get my 10,000 steps in during the work week but the weekends can be kind of tough so I need this motivation!!

    ok, looks like I'm the first one to check-in with my steps for today - I have 6035 (10710 yesterday) so not quite the start I was after, but tomorrow is another day! Anyone else checking in?

    Woke up this morning and consider rolling over and going back to sleep and then remember this challenge and hauled my butt out of bed to go for a walk before work I've got about 8000 steps so far and 7 hours left in my day so I will definitely hit the 10000 target woohoo
