    I'm going to apply the KISS theory here, 10k a day for a total of 29k for the month.

    I sit in front of a PC all day so 10k can be a challenge into it's self. I plan to log weekly, my low for the week and my high and the average.

    Good luck all.

    Week one down, total steps 78,174, average 11,167.

    Starting to get back into watching what I do after a recent weight gain. My goal right now is 10k a day and hoping this group helps motivate to do those last 2k steps after work 😐 instead of just sitting down right after.

    My goal is 7000 steps, as I have a sedentary job but am trying to change that with getting to the gym more, especially in the winter months.

    Feb 1 -- 8874 :)
    Feb 2 -- 9007 :)
    Feb 3 -- 7090 :)
    Feb 4 -- 7494 :)
    Feb 5 -- 10,358 :)
    Feb 6 -- 9069 :)
    Feb 7 -- 9948 :)
    Feb 8 -- 13,751 :)
    Feb 9 -- 4622 (8 days in a row of meeting my step goal is a record for me. Was too tired to get it all in today).
    Feb 10 -- 9476 :)
    Feb 11 -- 7725 :)
