At work we have enrolled a team in the provincial pedometer challenge.   The object is to log enough steps to equal a virtual walk around the province.  We keep track of our steps each day and register them on this web site.
During the cold months on a good day I’m lucky to walk around the block. Now that the weather is much warmer, my goal is to walk 10,000 steps each and every day.  The mornings I go to the gym I rack up 4800 steps by 7:00 a.m. If I decide to take it easy I have a rough time reaching 5000 steps in a day.  The only option I have is to move more. The pedometer reminds me to get off my butt and move.
This morning Win and I walked on the tread mill. This evening I joined my neighbour in a 20 minute walk. Step by step I’m making progress.
I think I will join you in that challenge. I will need to find my pedometer.
A few years ago mom was using a pedometer. I asked to borrow it and took it to work with me mowing lawns. . . 15,000 steps later I handed it back to her.
