Ran 4 miles tonight. Got a later start than normal. Today will be a good day, just not enough of them.

13,798 today. Did stairs on break at work for first time in over a month (140 steps) so that helped also. Could tell it'd been a while though. Usually do 8-10 times but only did 6 today.
New record in my last 24 hours, 18,001. Worked to get over 18,000 lol. Would love to get to jgirl one time. Walked 2.3 miles tonight, had to back down a tad, last night got me
18k is outstanding, Jazy. I figure that, give or take, 2,000ish steps is a mile. So you figure you did 8-9 miles. That's great.
18,852 for me today. Did the stairs at work again and made it a point to stay active most of the shift. Got home and worked out in the yard (unloading half a pickup of river rock for landscape) for a couple of hours. Then the wife and I went to the mall and out to eat. Great day
Wow, guess you gave me a new goal to beat. Did 2.2 miles tonight but won't walk tomorrow night, taking my wife out for our anniversary....going to eat redfish, no steak or potatoe. :)

Good job Flounder, I have bragged to many friends about your walking to work.
13,967 today but didnt do much tonight, rest time. Had lost 14 thru this am but that will change in the morning after our anniversary dinner tonight. Fried crab claws, crab bisque, redfish and half of a key line pie. Lol. Will do better tomorrow

12,402 yesterday on a 16 hour day at work so I was very happy with that. 17,813 today, did nearly 11,000 while at work. Definitely wish I had joined this thread sooner cause I'm consciously making sure I get over the 10,000 mark each day. Looked back at the 2 weeks prior to vacation and was averaging 6-7,000 those weeks.
15643 today which was good since I didnt walk last night after 9 pm. Played golf so that got me up and I walk to the ball often.
Walked tonight, 2 miles. I did go up 1.5# today which is ok. But I havevmoved my belt two notches and down 1 pant size
3792 yesterday, 4279 Saturday, 4408 Friday. Headed out of town for a wedding, and just couldn't get anything going.
I'm ok with being at the bottom, holding the rest of you up. I just don't want the gap to be as large as it is. I have to get to the point where I get 6k every day, and "exercise days" I can go way over. Then my average won't be too bad.
12,402 yesrterday
Today may be a slow day as post work I'm immediately heading over to watch the Reds play so while that will be a few hundred, perhaps a thousand or so, steps to get to the ballpark, I'll be doing a lot of sitting tonight (though hopefully a lot of standing up and cheering too, :) )
You will get more steps than you think getting to the game and maybe if you are way up that will help also.
12,000 is good though, especially for a sunday.
today might be slow for me also, lots of desk work today.

Was busy (on my feet walking) most of the day from 11-8 but probably did close to 2 hours of driving during that period also. Just makes you realize that if you don't really consciously exercise, work out in the yard cutting grass or something, jog/run or some significant activity then 10,000 steps can be tough to get in.
Appreciate you and JazyD, and that is a real concern. Hoping my bad recent schedule is a large contributing factor, but it has not been a great two weeks.Quote:

Kept thinking about getting thru it and getting my count up, that I couldn't stop. Lol. I didnt do the whole 2.6 miles but got over 2 miles. Got in and after my shower, was drenched in sweat, used one ice pack on back and one on knee. Climbing those hills was tough last night
Off today, started early and didn't stop till about 5:30. Cut grass, weed eating, cleaned garage,etc.... 31,500 for the day. Actually had 30,000 at 5:30 when I came in.
Record not even jgirl did that. I ended up with 16135 which was really good.

Only 6256 yesterday, but I'm done with post-work meetings/ballgames for a few days now. I should get over 10K today and I do have potential for some nice days this weekend even if I do go into to work a bit tomorrow morning.
So close last 24 hours, 19919. I really wanted 20000. I walked earlier tonight but not quite early enough. :). We are going to the movies tomorrow night so no walking tomorrow. Hope to still get 10,000 tomorrow
Great day jazyd. Been able to do stairs at work every day on lunch so getting back into that has really helped my numbers. Been getting 8-10,000 in before leaving work at 2 each day so it's been pretty easy to get good numbers. 15,800 Thursday, 15,000 Friday. Working 16 hours today but have got 10,400 in so far. Probably won't get more than 1-2,000 the rest of the day thought. Unless we have a breakdown or problems of some kind don't really plan on doing a lot of walking rest of evening.
I will give you 81 of mine. I'm not using them enough anyway :)Quote:

A new high today - 20,235 as of now though I may get a couple hundred more tonight. I'm not sure my legs will let me do much tomorrow. I'll be happy if I can half of today's total, but time will tell
