The Gransnet 10,000 steps a day club

10,447 plus a few more round the house and up to bed later.

Not intending to do much more walking today so 10763 for me. Have ordered another pedometer as fed up with keep trying to carry my phone with me everywhere.

I don't think sitting down is inertia inducing. I quite like it.

I had a pedometer once. It clipped on your waistband. Or on your drawers if you did n't have a waistband. It rubbed.

Well, I have taken the first step , by buying a super pedometer to slip in my pocket and measure just how little exercise i get every day. I am hoping that like others on here, I will get inspired to beat the target!

8,000ish yesterday hampered by the weather but managed to get a walk in during the hiatus from the rain in the afternoon.

I agree jinglebell, sitting on one's backside eating cake is a wonderful way to spend the day, trouble is it's inertia inducing and I find it just makes me feel really sluggish.

So I'm out to face the gusty winds in a hope that they might wake me up a bit.

I've avoided this thread, because the physio and GP told me I'd to stop walking for pleasure for 6 weeks. I am "allowed" to shop, iron and clean (the physio said, he is of course male) but not to do my usual 3 miles every morning with the dogs. We compromised, I can do 2 miles, 3 times a week, but other than that, it's supposed to be 15 mins a day maximum. I rested yesterday, and I'm off for a 3 mile walk now. No doubt I'll have painful feet and achilles etc later, but my heart will sing, and the dogs love the reservoir / forrest walk we're about to do.

Well, if it really does that for you, then that is very good.

I prefer to sit on my backside all day eating cake and getting very fat.

12,896 yesterday. Amazingly the rain stopped just long enough for my morning walk, and again for a shorter one in the afternoon.

jingle, exercise makes you feel better, in mind if not always in body!
#endorphinsandallthat.

6785 for me yesterday off for a walk later so hoping (as ever) to improve.

I did this a few years ago and enjoyed it I will look out my pedometer and start tomorrow.

Just going to have a nap, jings

I suppose you might add a couple of years onto your dotage. If you really want to.

Why?

Are n't you all really tired yet?

7834 for me yesterday have to walk into town now raining heavily so I may have more steps walking around the puddles!

I under performed by about 1,500 steps yesterday and it's not looking good for today either due to heavy rain.

Only 7792 yesterday. Yes, just been eying up the weather too shysal not very inviting.

11,570 yesterday. Just setting off for the usual 2 hour Sunday walk. It is raining heavily but my friend and I are determined to carry on regardless. Must be mad!

I haven't given up just forgetting to carry phone with pedometer app. Did the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and Westfield shopping centre in Stratford yesterday so must've topped 10,000 easily - my body is telling me so today!!

Just worked out my average for the week is 9,700 a day. I've had low days and high days but so long as I'm averaging almost 10,000 a day I'm

No pedometer - but did the steps per minute system. Before 10am this morning I'd walked 8,850 steps - so I reckon by the end of the day I'll have done plenty more.

Thanks shysal I have this morning been dancing around the kitchen to the oldie tunes on Radio 2 also have walked into town and back and will soon be doing other boring household chores. Need to keep active as I managed to put on 4 lbs during our few days at the coast and I need to weigh in at Slimming Club on Wednesday.

I got to 9,700ish yesterday, but we are off for a long walk this morning so hope to clock up quite a few steps, probably wont tomorrow, I think it's going to rain all day.

incentive!
