The Gransnet 10,000 steps a day club

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.

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.

Can you still walk today Versavia?

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.

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!

10078 for me today do not anticipate adding many more as I too am sitting waiting for the Bake Off. Well done to youversa and you Cari amazing totals.

Fantastic result Versavisa. Didn't make the grade today, have just gone over 9,000, maybe a few more before bedtime but I wont get up to the magic 10 once I sit down for Bake Off at 8, probably wont get up again. Up to town tomorrow, for hubby's b'day I have a meal and a theatre trip booked and we won't be taking the tube!

Have a great day Terri

Thanks chloe. Amazing total Cari.

I have just bought a fitbit and after wearing it all day have clocked up 10494 steps and 4.87 miles. I only went out for a short walk but live in a town house and have been up and down the stairs so many times today as was packing for a holiday in Suffolk/Norfolk. Might be going to Walberswick too!
Am looking after GD tomorrow which usually involves going out for a good walk.

10,191 for me yesterday. Got a free day today so have a choice - be lazy or go for the record! May end up somewhere betwen the two.

Very few steps for me yesterday, as might be expected. If I can get fitter I hope to be able to recover faster.

Has anyone noticed any benefits yet? I haven't, though it's early days I know.

Versa, as I have mentioned before, I have been sleeping better. On Saturday I only did around 4000 steps, and got about 2 hours sleep! My resting heart rate is going down and I am sure I recover more quickly. Hope you will soon feel the benefits.

I too am sleeping better and seem to have more energy although that could be me just trying to boost my total, but on the whole am enjoying the challenge.

10356 from me today

7,500 yesterday, and my feet aren't too painful this morning. I love having a pedometer again!

9437 yesterday, so didn't quite make it.

At last! 11, 534 steps yesterday the first time I have broken the 10,00 barrier since I joined your club! Youngest grandchild is full time in school from next week so hoping to have time for longer walks.

We'll done you Rosannie not sure I'll make it today but,plenty of time yet.

Glad to hear some of you are sleeping better now (that's what I was hoping to hear) as I'm not. My sleep pattern is all over the place but I'm trying to ignore it and hope it fall into a decent pattern eventually.

10201 from me today not hopeful for tomorrow as travelling and furniture shopping.

Well, back to average - 5754 ! Still hoping to make at least 3 10,000 days next week .
