I have my pedometer on and ready to start my Friday. Have you put yours on already? We have to keep increasing our steps from day to day in order to build up to 10,000 steps. That is our goal. After 4-5 hours sleep I feel I will not get many steps today but I know how much I have to do so let's just see if I beat my 8000+ I got yesterday. God bless y'all.

I have been so lax with any sort of physical activity, and I need to get out there and walk for sure. I was thinking about going now before it gets too hot (supposed to be a miserable 94 degrees again today).
I've got my shoes on and ready to go, but I hope my foot doesn't make me turn around before I get my mile in. I've got an odd foot pain that started a day or two ago, right in the ball of my foot.

OH, I hope your foot allowed you to get your mile in. Don't push it too hard though you don't want it to give you more troubles. Thanks for the post and God bless.

I did it!
I pushed my fat butt up and away from this computer and went out before I could talk myself out of it.
It was already 84 out there and quite warm, but I fared well. My foot is a little tender, but no worse for the wear.
If I do nothing else today, I will have accomplished this one simple (yet very much needed!) task.

Welcome aboard. Some of us are wearing a pedometer so we can see how many steps we are getting and have a goal to break the next day. You posted on this discussion and you are welcome to join us. I try to start a discussion each morning and then we either post on this one or kebpete has started a few at night to say how many steps we have gotten. We don't keep up with our steps on Sunday because that is a day of rest. Welcome and join us. God bless you.

You really did great yesterday! I haven't reached that mark yet. I think that I'll walk in place while I watch the news this evening, that should add some good steps! I forgot to put mine on today but I was surprised at first how many steps I take just getting up, going downstairs, making coffee, turning on the computer and going outside to read the first section of the newspaper.
