I'm in once again! Unfortunately, I'm off to a slow start, but I know I will make up for it as the month goes on.

I want to join...I started out slow because of family coming in. I didn't even try for 2 days but most days I make sure Im walking and usually i do my best to get over 10,000 so this will just give me more incentive.

Hello all ! I'm in. The first few days were slow because I was sitting in the hospital with my son but my goal is 10k each day. Monday through Friday is pretty easy while I'm working the challenge is on the weekend. I have a four day weeken coming up so hopefully I can get some steps in .2

I had close to 6000 steps in by 12:30 today. Took my Grandson to the Zoo. Then went home and took the Garmin off for a nap with that sweet baby.... I don't normally take it off but every now and then for a nap I do for comfort... Kind of a break... Anyway... Got up and Left the house without the Garmin... Ugh! I know I got well over 10,000 steps but can't prove it... Anyway... That's how the cookie crumbles some days.0
