    I didn't see this until today, but hey ho here goes,
    1st Aug = 1800
    2nd Aug = 2300
    3rd Aug = 6200
    4th Aug = 5300
    5th Aug = 11449 "I got lost twice" :-(
    6th Aug = 7000

    It may look a little pathetic but on the 10th July I broke my back in 4 places, crushed my right shoulder and a couple of other bits & bobs, had an op on my shoulder on the 22nd which is super painful. On morphine 24/7 so a little limited to progress but hey I'm trying. I reckon I can get up to 10k and go past it, so it may be a slow start but i'll try for the 310,000 the same as everyone else :-)
    275,951 to go

    Hey don't worry about last week, just aim for 8000 each day this week.
    Maybe try each time the adverts come on you get up and walk outside for a few minutes, you'll probably do 400 each time, 4 adverts an hour = 1600. 2 hours of tv would give you 3200 = magic.

    As this weeks goal is 11080/day i'm trying to keep on track all day.
    7am-8am = 850
    8-9 = 850 etc the closer I can stay to those numbers the easier it will be come tonight.
