      December 1....Day 1 down. My fitbit battery died at 6800 steps, but I did a 2 mile walk at home video. Even if I didn't make 10000 steps, I feel pretty good

      I am in...I generally walk around 8000 steps per day...so I want to amp it up to 10,000. Let's do this!

      I'm in! My goal is to walk 10,000 steps 5 days a week. I used to but have been non-weight bearing for several months and now have a clunky walking boot that I will be wearing for the rest of my life, but I need to do this! I need to set my Fitbit back up, and get it charged so will start tomorrow.

      I'd like to join this challenge as well. I'm aiming for a minimum of 13,000 steps per day. For today I have my 13,000 steps in and hope to get a few more in before the night is over on my treadmill. Thanks for setting this challenge up.

      I'm in. I'd like to get in a 20-minute walk every day. I'm starting from no intentional walking- I mean just the usual walking throughout the course of my day, but nothing added for fitness/relaxation.

      I had a daily goal of an average of 13,000 steps, which adds up to 403,000 for the month of December, which in hindsight may be a little aggressive. However, rather than change it, I am going to go for it

      12/3 - 20,770
