    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.

    August Total: 41,510 steps | 15.09 miles | Average: 10,378 steps per day | 3.77 miles per day
    July Total: 184,334 steps | 67.57 miles | Average: 5,946 steps per day | 2.18 miles per day
    June Total: 168,863 steps | 61.37 miles | Average: 5,629 steps per day | 2.05 miles per day
    May Total: 155,826 steps | 57.06 miles | Average: 5027 steps per day | 1.84 miles per day
    April Total: 113,520 steps | 41.30 miles | Average: 3784 steps per day | 1.38 miles per day

    My goal is to "Walk Across Texas." From the Louisiana border to El Paso is 857 miles. So far:
    April 1 - Now: 242.38 miles walked out of 857 miles across Texas

    I'm in. Sounds like fun.

    Numbers below may look a little off due to the fact that I use a Suunto Ambit 3 for the miles during my morning walk, and a Fitbit for the all day steps.

    Aug. 1 - 4.19 miles | 11,494 steps
    Aug. 2 - 5.73 miles | 10,648 steps
    Aug. 3 - 6.33 miles | 17,301 steps
    Aug. 4 - 5.34 miles | 12,925 steps

    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

    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 <3 You're rockin' it!
