New month, new challenge!

Our challenge is to do 10,000 steps in a day. You can do this for any one day or try for the entire month. Jump right in at any time! You can set a lower or higher goal if you wish. Our main goal is to keep activate every day!

It's easy to join - Just post here to begin! You can also jump in anytime during the month, too.

You will need a step counter to keep track of your steps and then post your results daily here.

Welcome to our Monthly Step Challenge!

    I've been trying to hit 10,000 consistently for a while but I never made it past a week... hope this month will be the month I can do it!

    July 1 - 11,293 - so far, so good!

    Welcome! You can edit posts if you want. Sometimes we end up adding a few steps after we posted.

    Welcome! I also have a sedentary job, so I shoot for 7500 steps. Last month was not very good for me, as work was pretty busy.

    My goal is 7500 steps a day, as I have a sedentary job and like to go for bike rides, too. I'm determined to up my step count this month!!

    Oh dear. I realised I've been logging on the wrong challenge. I meant to join here for my second month but ended up on a miles one. Oops.

    My goal for the month is ave of 6500 steps/day. I find it hard to log a lot of steps as I don't track my exercise. I either do strength training or I'm playing rugby so I can't have a tracker on me.

    Total 24,709 (20.72km)

    1/Jul 9723 (7.66km)
    2/Jul 14,986 (13.06km)
    June 17: 180,623/150,000 (141.47km)
    July 17: in progress

    Hope it's okay to join even though I have a daily step goal of 25k steps? I'm naturally restless and generally get at least 21k steps a day. I'm a nanny to 5 year old twins so when I'm working I'm constantly on my feet.

    Yesterday was a failure at 23,432 and today I likely won't even hit 22k but I'm not giving up. I will make more time to walk, whether it's getting up a little earlier or walking before it gets dark.

    Joining this challenge has motivated me to meet the 10,000 steps today - even though 1500 steps were just back and forth around the kitchen island :dizzy: whatever works!

    July 1 - 11,293
