The Gransnet 10,000 steps a day club

What progress Anya! Chloe, you will be returning from holiday so fit! I managed 10,256 yesterday. My enthusiasm is definitely waning.

Only 5066 yesterday

10,694 for me yesterday. Again I had to force myself to go out to make up the total, but I am fine once I am out of the door!

Be sensible Cari, have a rest day! Your totals are amazing!

Well done everyone. I'm guessing you're a spring chicken Cari?

9,200 for Friday.

I managed 9816 yesterday am exhausted my feet are sore but have all the family coming to tea tomorrow so have to get out there for supplies. Like you shysal am fine when I am out it's sometimes the getting through the door I find difficult. I think we are all doing well just hope we can keep it up.

9406 yesterday. Reading what others have managed does egg me on to use my feet and not the car

8914 for me yesterday not sure what will happen today but will post total tomorrow.

14,240 yesterday. Already done over 10,000 today and the weather is gorgeous, so hope to do more.

At last getting back into walking out again after lots of visitors and sitting chatting, or spending time driving to places all day! Managed 11523 today so a good start for me. More gorgeous weather please to get us all out there this coming week.

10,081 yesterday. Good one Nanabelle here's wishing you

14204 for me yesterday not sure how as had all the family here for tea. Think it must have been all the trips to the kitchen refilling the teapot.Well done * nanabelle* hopefully it will become second nature to us all to get out there , always better in the sunshine though.

Pleased you are with us Nanabelle. I am also looking forward to more today. I managed 14,568 yesterday, although I was hoping for more.

Two bad days, feeling under the weather Saturday just scraped 6,200ish. I was looking after 4 year old granddaughter yesterday and although we went to Bushy Park, I only managed to reach just over 8,000. I had a good, but not exceptional run for a couple of weeks, sometimes it's hard to keep the momentum going. However, hope to improve on the week-end today.

I'd like to join in but I really don't know how you all find the time to do over 10000 I manage 5000+ on a good day and thats fitting in a 40 min walk and another of 20mins I feel as though I am 'stepping out' not just strolling and I wear my pedometer indoors too although i sometimes forget to put it on. 10000 feels like an unobtainable goal to me.
Maybe my pedometer is faulty hahah thats my excuse! Its finding the time I find difficult.

10,000 steps usually takes me about 90 minutes, spread over 2 or 3 walks, starting briskly but flagging towards the end of the day! I am fortunate to have nobody else to worry about, so can give it priority.

For the last few weeks I have been wearing a Fitbit Zip, which is a wireless activity tracker. It syncs automatically with my phone and tablet, tells me how far I've walked, how many steps and also calorie intake and outtake (which I haven't bothered about at the moment)

Does anyone else have one of these?

Been away, and did 11,000, 12,500, 14,000 and 12,000. I'm delighted,and my feet seem to be coping, with the help of anti inflammatories. Only 6,000 today, but lots of washing of windows etc, so done my bit.

Only 7689 for me as most of the day I have been doing housework and reorganising the furniture etc after being invaded by family at the weekend.

Back to over 10,000, just, 10,113.

Only 8307

Cari, I have been trying to cure a knee injury for nearly a year by using it a lot - it hasn't worked yet, still aches all the time! The only thing I hold back on is jumping jacks in Body Attack class, so do vigorous half ones.

11,460 yesterday. Our club is slowly growing, even Jingle mentioned elsewhere that she is trying it, bet she is lurking.
