August 4: 10,015 steps | 3.64 miles - Mall walking and catching Pokemon with the kids! I messed up my meds and made myself sick (took my antibiotic without food), so I decided walking around the mall would be more relaxing than my usual housework and such.

I don't keep my phone in my pocket to count the steps, and I don't have some funky watch todo it for me
So I put the timer on my phone and time myself and if it's not at an exact minute, I go to the lowest minute

I am starting new again. I will try this. Need lots of motivation. Will use Fitbit for total steps and Endomondo for my specific walks3

There's no tracking rules here. Anyone can share their steps, miles/km, minutes, or even just posting the lovely things they saw or did while moving our bods.
Oh, and fantastic active times this week, @SamanthaLouiseMence You're rockin' it! 2 -
