Back again. Didn't realise until late yesterday that I've got bad sunburn on the back of my shoulders, which was the one place I forgot to put sunscreen. Ah well, it was all for a good cause, and I'm able to laugh this morning about how awful I felt during it, ha ha.

That's awesome progress , Jess, that deserves an internet high five!

3rd July, checking in. Absolutely pooped today. I did a 10k sponsored walk, starting this morning, which I figured would be a challenge, but doable. No one told me what the terrain would be like, and it was rough. There were some crazy steep hills, and after 8.5km, I felt really ill, so had to stop for ten minutes or so as…

Sounds perfect :)

Woohoo, glad to have you along :smiley:

Ok, I'm back. This site says that a Body Pump is equivalent to over 16,000 steps in an hour - do you think this would be about right? calorieking.com.au/tools/step_equivalence.php There are other options on there for you to look at, and you can see which you feel is closest to the exercise you did (having never done a body…

Hi @sharondjs Pop '60 mins Les Mills body pump' in to the box for today, we can always work out how to convert it and come back to it. *sneaks off to find out what a body pump is*...

No worries, you can still add steps for the days we did this for, if you want to :smile:

1st July already! Wow, this year is going fast!

Popping my head in...

So, we didn't quite make it all the way to the top of the mountain, but we're more than half the way there, so I added on yesterday and today's date to add your steps. We made it so Saksayhuaman, which is a citadel on the northern outskirts of the city of Cusco, Peru, the historic capital of the Inca Empire. Sections were…

You didn't fail, Arlene. You were active, you did exercise, that's always a win!

June 28th, checking in. I can't believe its almost July! This year is going so fast.

Checking in. I spent Saturday night comforting some friends who'd experienced some rather nasty racial abuse, people shouting racial insults at them in the street and telling them to "**** off back home". They were born in this town. And this morning, I noticed someone had carved swastikas into the glass at my local bus…

Ok, I've added my steps. I had to take an educated estimate for my steps that I did on Saturday evening and Sunday morning as I didn't take my Fitbit charge lead when I stayed over at a friend's house, which annoyed me greatly. I checked a map, worked out the distance and added it that way.

So, so pleased he came through it well. Really happy for you, Kat xxx

Checking in. Feeling very stressed about the whole EU referendum thing right now in the UK, so I might be offline until Saturday. I hope your hubby is doing well, Kat.

Keeping you in my thoughts, Kat xx

Thank you for adding your steps, you helped push us over that finish line :smiley:

Ok, so I've updated Challenge Two - we crossed the finishing line - woot! In order to give me a little more time to get the stuff together for the Italy challenge, I'll post the short challenge next. It will be a weekend challenge, starting Saturday, and it will be Machu Picchu. Its only around 50 miles, so if we work…

And just like that, we're done! With a whopping two million, three hundred and twenty thousand, five hundred and seventy two steps, we've reached Land's End! Woo hoo! Your feet must be aching, shall we dip them in the cool Cornish waters? Take a bow, everyone, pat yourselves on the back, and have a well deserved rest.…

Not been around for a few days, being visited by the big black dog once again, but will try to check in when I can.

Me too, again

So, firstly, if you want to add all your May steps, that would be awesome! I'm about to set up a week challenge, and a weekend challenge, but these will be independent of any dates/steps already used, so add up to what you like, and I'll post the new challenges asap.

Me too

89% of the way done, and over TWO MILLION steps!!

Here

That is awesome news, well done Cari :smiley:

I'm bumping this thread, as we're now at 87%, but only a couple of people are still adding. I'm going to give this one a day or two more, and then call an end to it, I think. If people have lost interest in this one, then hopefully they'll join one of the new challenges. Hopefully...

Oops, I missed yesterday (I was asleep A LOT of the day), but I'm here now. Nice to see you all :smile:
