    Looking forward to increasing my daily step goal to 12000 instead of 10000.

    I would like to join. I did UAC challenge in May and comitted to 20 minutes of activity a day. It made a huge difference to my life. Surprisingly I felt less pain the more I moved. I am 50, weigh around 144 lbs ( haven't checked for a week) and have comitted myself to Zero Wine until I lose ten pounds. I started at 148 lbs.

    I am off to garden then I will walk for my twenty minutes before lunch.

    Groovy!

    Please add me to your list too please. I've been walking more the last two weeks and my current goal is to get 10K steps in each day. Have a Fitbit to keep track of them. My husband and daughter are also walking with me at night to get more steps in.

    Do we post our numbers here when we are done walking? I have set up a separate document with them on too so I can keep up my 'good' work ;)

    Anyway you want to work it, it is all groovy. I like posting my numbers/walks daily. Some do it weekly.

    I limped the mile to my gym....it was about 17 minutes, but Runkeeper blew up my phone and I had to pull the battery to reset....then my trainer decided it was Butt Day. Oww, my butt. :tongue:

    I'm in but most likely can't get started until next week as I'm getting over a sinus annd ear infection and bronchitis. I can post the few steps I take until I get going again though.

    Went for two twenty minute walks. Downloaded Pacer but need to sort out synching. I would estimate 5,000 steps since I walked around 2 km both times
