    I get between 7000-10000 during the week, and usually between 10000-12000 on weekends

    My goal is 8,000. I am pretty good at meeting or exceeding it when the weather is good. When it's awful, I tend to settle for 6,000. I'm working my way up though, I used to only get 4,000 or so!

    10000 -11000 during the week, 11000 to 15000 on weekends. 30000 that is impressive!

    8-10K. Most of my exercise isn't step based, so I don't really worry about it. I figure 8-10K per day for a desk jockey and cyclist is pretty good.

    I did 34,000 yesterday. Long hike. There was an option to do a loop and I knew I'd be sore, but ... it was a loop!

    I aim for 8,000 min, usually get 7,000-16,000.

    Nope I have a desk job I'm up at 5 to do a 57 minute kickboxing workout and I run to get to 12,000 before breakfast, I walk for my hour long lunch to get to my 20, 000, I get a few steps at work depending on the day maybe 1, 000 for the rest I walk once I get home at night unless I have dance class!

    On a normal day usually about 5000. On days my kid has golf, I walk the course as a spectator and get about 11000, that's counting my other steps and is for 9 holes.
    I'd like to get about 10,000 everyday, but with a desk job I think that's not too bad.
    I haven't brought my step counter on a run yet because I forget...

    15-16K most days and 20k on the weekends. I average about 50 miles a week of exercise steps.

    6-12,000 all are "non-exercise" steps--just part of my life.

    That’s an average of walking 15 miles a day! My husband is a chef on his feet all day and averages 15-20000 steps. He will hit 25000 on the days he runs instead of lifting after work. I can’t imagine consistently getting more than that, especially with a desk job. I have a desk job and average 8-9k. Twice a week I run before work and do Jazzercize for an hour after work (my double down days) and I get about 14k those days.

    30k is a lot, kudos on that! My personal daily goal is 15k, but my average so far this month is 21k. We’re in “omg it’s spring, it’s warm, let’s go outside FOREVER” mode right now - so it’s sort of artificially heightened due to that. A 15k daily goal feels really good to me normally though, it tends to be just enough of a stretch that it pushes me to find reasons to move.

    How do you hit that many on a daily basis? That's around 15 miles of steps per day...

    Idk about the poster but before I transitioned into working from home I would get 10-15k a day at work alone (floor nurse on a busy unit). Then my hour long workout was step based, another 5-6k and if I went shopping that day lol. But 30k is wow on the regular. Now that I work from home I struggle to get 3-5k.
