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.

I'm in for 200,000 steps in October. We are watching our grandson and grandpuppy every weekday morning, so our regular walk has been put on hold. We do take them out for a walk every morning, but it isn't the five miles we usually do.

My goal is 7500 steps, as I have a sedentary job. With the cooler weather approaching, I will be doing more walking than biking, though, so I hope to get my step count up.
