edited October 6 in Fitness and Exercise
Challenge is to do 10,000 steps in a day. You can do this for any one day or try for the entire month. 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 will need a step counter to keep track of your steps and then post your results daily here.

    I would like to join...

    I have gallbladder surgery scheduled for January 10th, so this will probably be all the exercise I'm going to be allowed to do for a few weeks afterwards.

    Thanks for sending me the link.

    Bumping for later.

    Don't currently have a proper step counter but I know I have a cheap freebie one in a drawer downstairs that I could try out and I know I have a fm radio with a step counter that was given to me as a gift but I have only ever used the radio which doesn't work 100%.

    I will try them out in Janaury.

    Another day off that I started early in the morning long walk and did some cleaning to get the house back to normal.

    Today will be tough - Going to work makes it harder to get lots of steps in.

    1/2 - 13,625

    I've had a step counter for years but only recently starting using it. I was surprised that I did only 2,000 steps when I was not trying.
