Wow Cheesegrader! You are a maniac! 18.55 miles today? I thought I was walking a lot. You must walk all day long!!! Great job. You’re average is 11 miles per day! |

I’m bummed out that you are counting every step of the day. I thought this challenge was about ramping up our exercise. I am counting hikes, neighborhood walks and treadmill miles. I’m not counting walking around the grocery store and shifts at work and trips to the bathroom. What are other challenge competitors counting? Madame? Lixa? It’s really not fun to play if we aren’t playing by the same rules. |

Im not counting when im at work. I started walking to work plus whatever other walking im doing. I actually have a job where i sit down all day. I just got the pedometer so i know exactly how far because im not walking where its marked how far im going. |

This challenge is just about getting people walking. So be it walking around the house, around the store, or on a long walk it counts. If you were to measure your walking around the grocery store, shifts at work, and trips to the bathroom you would find they don’t really account for much overall distance. (Unless your job is say…a park ranger or you walk the grocery store every day…in any case it still counts as walking.) |

I count all walking. I put a pedometer on and what it says when I log in is what I put down. I clear it every day. I also never wear it on the treadmill. I never count my treadmill workout. I walk at work, not a sit down job, I walk to stores, I walk my neighborhood, I hike, I walk around my house doing housework. All that is walking, and all of it counts. The challenge from what I could tell was to get walking and so I did. |

Bummer. I’d love to win a walking challenge. Alas, I don’t believe it is possible without a pedometer. I have not counted anything but formal exercise time. I walk a lot at work and never counted a step. Anyway, I have enjoyed competing against you Madame and everyone. You have helped push me to walk an incredible number of miles and I have lost 15lbs this month. Sorry if I sounded like sour grapes. i just didn’t understand how it works and competition is really motivating to me. Thanks for the challenge Infinity and so sorry if I pissed off cheesegrader. Maybe I’ll get a pedometer and try again sometime. |
