The Gransnet 10,000 steps a day club

Cari As far as I can remember (it's all logged on Runkeeper I think) we started at Putney Brudge station, walked up the Kings Road to Sloane Square, walked up Sloane Street to Knightsbridge, walked across Hyde Park to Marlborough Gate, then walked back across the park to High Street Ken. Lots of diversions into shops (not the designer ones!) and restaurants and byways. We were mainly looking at the buildings above street level as they are fascinating. We logged 8.5 miles and I was pleased not to have tripped up as I was looking up so much!

Aka just checked my pedometer and it says 44, one extreme to the other! Can walk but just tired. Yesterday's walk was lovely though.

Cari enjoy Bake Off and I think you deserve the rest.

Can you still walk today Versavia?

Still can't believe it but yesterday I did 20,007 steps! Had a long walk looking at the architecture in London and there always seemed to be something around the corner to lure me on. Needless to say I think I will be having a quieter day today so that my feet can recover.

Only 4520 for me yesterday. It was such a lovely day that I spent most of it catching up on gardening. Hope to do better today, including LBT class, although have grandparent duties for part of the time.

Yesterday (tuesday) I managed only 4,800. I did a yoga class of one and a half hours, that was a challenge though, and 3 hours at dog training later, which included running round the agility course. So, I'm claiming a "good" 4,800.

11,038 aching ankles!

Have been to the beach hut in Walberswick for the past 3 days, managed around 7,500 a day, 2,000 of those walking to the loo and back to the hut. Good for the thighs is Walberswick.

13493 so far today. Went into London, up the ArcelorMittel Tower in the Queen Elizabeth Park, Stratford and then on to see the poppies at the Tower. Made the mistake of wearing a new pair of walking shoes on what turned out to be a hot day - result blisters

11665 for me today feel like I haven't stopped all day. So exhausted. Will report back tomorrow on how I do.

I've set my pedometer for my stride length - measured by counting steps and then measuring the distance in the back garden. 10,000 steps works out about 4.16 miles for me, though my pedometer measures in km! Good job I like maths.

Managed 10,546 yesterday. Would have done more as I was enjoying it but it started to rain, and I decided a cup of tea was called for.

13,003 yesterday. Good luck with the wardrobe clearing Chloe, when I do mine almost everything goes back in! I am a bit OCD with it, hanging tops in rainbow colour order, and pale to dark within each section! This unfortunately doesn't extend to the shoes which are jumbled on the floor and shelf beneath!

11581 from me today lam24 I agree that 5400 steps is about three miles so all good , hopefully won't be long before jeans are too big. Not sure what I will do tomorrow as DH is working and I have promised myself that I will clear out both of our wardrobes (what joy) and that may not leave a lot of time for walking.

10,106 just made it today. Iam64 according to my pedometer this equates to 8.08 km, which is almost 5 miles, so on that basis I guess 5,400 steps is about 3 miles, roughly, maybe a little under that.

I've been watching this thread, and feeling a bit disgruntled. The physio said I'd to cut down my walking, by a significant amount. I have done for a month, my feet do ache a bit less, but my jeans are tight,and I miss having a3 mile walk to start the day. So, I have a new pedometer, and today have done 8004 steps.

When I last used a pedometer, about 2 years ago, I usually did 12,000 so I feel I'm (almost) following the physic's advise. The walk this morning was 5,400 steps- is that about 3 miles folks?

11205 for me today I was fairly pleased until I saw the amazing totals from both terri and sal so well done both, not sure I will ever top your total sal but certainly gives us all something to aim for. Going to try a longish walk tomorrow so ever hopeful. Look forward to seeing your totals coolgran

12,489 and totally knackered long walk this afternoon to the pub directly across the river from where we live. We had a long sit down and a drink staring back at at familiar territory. So near with boat, but so far without one! Beautiful day enjoyed the walk back along the river, over the bridge and then another long walk the other side.

My God shysal have just read your total, I think I'd be crawling about on my hands and knees if I'd done that many!

I look forward to hearing how you get on Coolgran.

After a couple of lazy days nursing an aching knee, I have felt good today and clocked up 21,866 steps over 3 separate walks! The weather has been lovely, and I just wanted to be out in it.

I am inspired and will order a pedometer from Amazon immediately.

8383 not such a good day as mostly in the car and shopping but well done to everyone else some fantastic totals here. Need to up my game as managed to put on a total of 4 lbs whilst grandchildren were staying blame it on the peanut butter and Nutella that I always buy for them and manage to eat most of the jar before they even see it. So best foot forward for me this week. Will report back.

10,030 yesterday. I'm finding I'm sleeping better since I started this challenge which is a great benefit to me.

Aka I love just wandering if I can make the effort. It's already surprising how many roads and paths I've found that I didn't know previously.
