I've done 18,000 not sure if that's good or what. I have made a more conscious effort to move more though and I feel lovely and tired now so I'm ready for my bed 🛌 lol

How many do you normally do ?
What's the most you've ever done?

1703 - I am 39 weeks pregnant though so I’m considering that a win! Was expecting something sub 1000.

Ridiculously high readings on here. Mine is 7201 today, which was 2 walking school runs and a short dog walk. I had to go out early, so the dog walk is usually a bit longer, but I'm still usually around 9,000 - 11,000 max.

Daffodils8 · 13/05/2022 22:48

11,516 today.

My aim is 10,000 and I usually get it most days as I'm on maternity leave and can get out for a walk every day. I find it much harder to meet it when I'm working though.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 13/05/2022 22:54

10,653. That was a WFH day - on a day in work I tend to be about 18,000.

Imsittinginthekitchensink · 13/05/2022 23:00

7268 but did go to the office today. Yesterday was a fun-filled day of zoom meetings from home and I didn't get over 1000.

Kittykatmacbill · 13/05/2022 23:02

32k with a ten k run. Longest ever day 65k with a marathon.

MrOllivander · 13/05/2022 23:04

About 3000. Sat at my desk from 8am - 5pm so no chance to walk around
I do spin classes so get some exercise!

Spitescreen · 13/05/2022 23:04

29,237. I don’t drive, so I walk everywhere.

Ethelfromnumber73 · 13/05/2022 23:15

14,354 as well as a 1k swim

Redshoeblueshoe · 13/05/2022 23:16

4943 I also don't drive, and I have done no other exercise today, except to raise my right arm, so I can drink several glasses 🍷

BeeandG · 13/05/2022 23:20
  1. A wfh day so not enough movement during the working day. Been out for a walk tonight to get my steps up. I have 10k as a daily target. Normally hit it about 5 out of 7 days. Really would love to do more but tricky with a desk job.
ErrolTheDragon · 13/05/2022 23:28

My average for this year so far is a bit over 13.5 k, but today I didn't get out for a walk so only 2270. The most I've done recently is 31845, a rather boggy and very up and down walk to see McCleods Maidens on Skye.

itssquidstella · 13/05/2022 23:52

16,755. I don't think that's bad given that I’m 39 weeks pregnant!

Chakraleaf · 13/05/2022 23:54

I average 12-22k so this was a lower day for me because I was paddleboarding and swimming.

I like your style. 😀

Well that puts me to shame 😂

LeeMucklowesCurtains · 14/05/2022 08:39

I only do the school run up the road so it’s always pitifully low.

I’d go for walks but I live in a shit hole and I don’t fancy getting mugged.

Crunchymum · 14/05/2022 09:09

I did 18k yesterday. I too am making a conscious effort. I do approx 10k on work days (I work 3 days per week but I still work from home so it is quite a challenge to get my 10k) and anywhere between 10-15k on non working days.

I also have arthritis that manifests in my feet so when I'm having a flare I couldn't dream of 10k steps.

18k was a good day.

Libertybear80 · 14/05/2022 14:07

1946!

elQuintoConyo · 14/05/2022 14:13

It's 3pm, I've done about 6.

Hoovered, washed up, cleaned kitchen and bathroom, sorted put paper, plastic and glass recycling, watched Guardians of the Galaxy and continued with a Futurama cross stitch.

I'll take the recycling down later, walk the dog, get some milk. I don't expect to hit 5,000 today.

Tomorrow we're out for a big mountain walk and picnic, so I'll do more.

elizabethdraper · 14/05/2022 16:50

Currently on 11856 but I need to take the dog out for about an hours walk later and then we are heading in to the city for dinner, so there will be a fair bit of walking involved

Bugbeau · 14/05/2022 16:59

9,115. I’ve not really walked anywhere but have been busy at a football tournament with the kids. Will be around 10-11,000 by bedtime which is average for me on a weekend.

MinglingFlamingo · 14/05/2022 16:59

I did 8618

So far today I've done 5589

DinosApple · 14/05/2022 18:28

With a walk to work and a non desk job (that still requires some sitting) I do about 6k with my short walk to work. In the nice weather and long evenings I go for a short run or a walk to push it between 12-15k.

TheDuchessOfMN · 16/05/2022 19:25

I’ve just hit my 10k now

That’s about average for me
