Met my step goal for yesterday

Tweet

How is everyone doing this Wednesday morning? I am returning to work after a nice three day weekend where I feel like I got lots done! It will be a long day (10a-1p and then 2p to midnight). I won’t be working the ENTIRE time but doing this extra special project, so at least there’s that. I am usually really active in the spring, summer and fall and every winter, while I still go to the gym, I miss those outdoor walks and hikes that really help me stay in shape and motivated. Just for fun, and because I had nothing going on beyond some household stuff, I made it my goal to hit 30,000 steps. Sometimes I would in the summer time when going to state parks or while hiking nearby. I hit 22,000 with little effort but then my body got pretty tired. So i took an hour and a half nap and then met a friend at the gym. We did a lot of time on the elliptical (which seems to not count your steps quite as much as power-walking) but managed to hit over 30,000 by nights end. Now that I know this is possible, even during the winter, I think I am going to try every week or every other week to hit 30K just for fun and for added exercise. Most days i reach 10-15, but sitting at work all day doesn’t help much. Do you make step goals each day?
