In order to get more active this summer I was curious if anyone would be interested in a summer step challenge.
Summer runs from June 21st all the way until September 23rd. One Million steps divided by 94 days would be approximately 10,638 steps a day. We can use various step tracking apps to help keep us accountable and motivated.
I think having the brain register 1,000,000 could be very stimulating and give those who complete it a sense of accomplishment.
Some days you may log 30,000 steps other Netflix days maybe you rest and get a couple thousand.. but ultimately planning out a goal that is fairly doable might motivate someone to park farther in the parking lot, take the dog on a longer walk or take a few extra laps at the office.
Regardless it will keep you active, out of sedentary and give more of a reason to log accurately.
