STEP CHALLENGE PARTICIPANTS, YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE!

We're having a little difficulty handling the variety of formats we see when you post your steps. It's easy enough to see what you mean, but it's easier still to use a little copy/paste trickery to get the job done. That's where the problem pops up.

So, if you could please make sure your post adheres to these rules:

• make your steps easy to see in your post
• if multiple days, single spacing or double spacing is fine, whatever works for you
• whatever else you do, use spaces to separate date and steps from anything else.
• enter date like 6/15 (with a slash), not 6-15 (with a dash)
• do or don't use a comma in your steps, but if you're prone to accidently hitting a period instead of a comma, please just omit the comma.
• that's about it, but...
• if you like, use an optional character to visually separate date and steps:
  • optional characters like dash (-), equal sign (=), em (—) are all fine, as are just about anything, as long as you've got the spaces mentioned above.
• it can be as simple as this: 6/15 12345
• or as complicated as this: my steps for today, Sunday 6/15 were 12,345

So, here's a few examples of what doesn't work:

• 6/15-12345 (no spaces)
• 6-15 12345 (hyphen in date, instead of slash)
• Sun 6/15 - 12.345 (period in steps, instead of comma)
• Sunday = 12,345 (just the day of week, date omitted)
• June 15 = 12,345 (month spelled out; this one actually works, but it's sloppy)

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the gratitude prompts @nancyinmiami!

@angmarie28 - I loved the fun family picture you posted after your run. What a nice shared experience and the signs/captions were so cute — a nice way to capture the memory! I’ve also enjoyed all the running stories! It doesn’t matter to me if someone finishes first or last because I admire the personal challenge of setting out to do something important to you and then striving to achieve it. Actually, it doesn’t even matter if we finish because the purposeful practice of engaging with the world is likely to make us stronger, healthier, etc. Congratulations to everyone who ‘enters the arena’! 👏👏👏

Here’s an excerpt from Theodore Roosevelt’s famous speech, known as The Man in the Arena: “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” (President of USA, Theodore Roosevelt, 2010)

I’ve been doing a little more running these days b/c I signed up for the Marine Corps Marathon in late October. They call it “the people’s marathon.” This will be my first attempt at running such a long distance so my goal is just to finish — to be the woman in “the arena” 😂 Best wishes to all the Shape Shifter team members pursuing something important to your health and wellbeing. Go get those goals!
