March - 10k a day Club

March thread for anyone who wants to join in with getting their 10k a day steps in each day. A place to be accountable and motivate each other!

The Feb Thread was super positive and friendly and involved a lot of us getting outdoors in the rain, jumping on the walking pad and wandering around our lounges to hit the last few steps 🤩 and one of us wandering around a cruise ship 😁

Hopefully March will bring more sunshine fuelled walks ☀️ Let's do this!!

I'll join again and see if I can get rid of those peskie 1.5lbs of Christmas weight. Cannot guarantee I'll do it every day as I'm trying to think of something different to do for March, on top of my having given up sweets and chocolate for lent.
I will be 109lbs or less again by 1st April.

Cysco · 28/02/2026 20:39

Ooh me please x

SilenceInside · 28/02/2026 20:51

I’ll jump back in again for March. Might consider upping the target to 11k having managed 10k for Feb, not sure yet!

Placeoftides · 28/02/2026 20:53

Yes please! Sounds great, count me in

10kstepsaday · 28/02/2026 21:08

Welcome @Cysco and @Placeoftides 😃

And welcome again @CleanandLight109 and @SilenceInside 😁

Tomorrow I am planning a morning outdoor walk, as we have family over in the afternoon. Putting it out there now so there's more chance of it actually happening instead of me just staying in bed 😴🤣

I'm up for this, hopefully easier with some sunny evenings

ThatAgileMintBiscuit · 28/02/2026 22:25

Would love to join in please. I need to loose about 1 and a half stone. With the lighter mornings and evenings this might make it alittle easier. Thanks ☺️

10kstepsaday · 01/03/2026 07:28

Welcome @Birdsongisangry and @ThatAgileMintBiscuit 😊

Very proud of myself for getting a morning walk in today, managed to see the sunrise 😃 definitely recommend. Was so peaceful listening to the birds and bonus is I got a ton of steps in early! The negative is I'm shattered now before 8am 🤣

Well done @10kstepsaday I will be following the thread and chipping in from time to time but I have decided March will be the month of IF and 3 long walks per week ( not on the IF day) as DH and I have decided to do the South Downs Way in May.
I want each month of the year to be a do something specific month.

OpalSpirit · 01/03/2026 17:00

Yes please

10kstepsaday · 01/03/2026 18:14

That's awesome @CleanandLight109 and yes please come and visit us when you can 🤩 good luck with the IF I have tried that before and it definitely helps with weight loss. Very cool to have something new each month to do, slowly builds rhose healthy habits.

Welcome @OpalSpirit 😍

Beautiful sunrise photograph. I managed 5,600 steps. I have depression so lay in bed all day. Then the continual anxiety + this thread drew me out of the house for a run / walk. So, thank-you

10kstepsaday · 01/03/2026 19:24

Welcome @Blastedusername
Sorry to hear you are living with depression, and well done for getting out of the house - I know that isn't easy! 💗

Hello everyone, I can't believe it's March, February went so quickly. I have managed 10,068 today but had to do a quick march around the block to complete it.
Well done @Blastedusername that can't have been easy for you. I hope the fresh air and exercise lifted your spirit if only for a short while. Do stay with us.

Just completed my 10k.
I did have to march around my living with the dog biting my heels for the last couple of thousand!

10kstepsaday · 01/03/2026 22:02

Well done @Joolly2 and @OpalSpirit 🥳
There will be plenty of days for me walking around the house and/or block coming up too!

Can I join? I did 15k today so a good start to the month

SilenceInside · 01/03/2026 23:31

Managed 10.5k today, not much chance for a decent length walk today as I was painting and decorating.

dancingredshoes · 01/03/2026 23:32

I’ll join please

10kstepsaday · 02/03/2026 08:26

Welcome @dancingredshoes and @socks1107 - that's a great start 🤩

Well done @SilenceInside painting and decorating is exhausting!!

I did see a loss on the scales this morning which I wasn't expecting as I ate a load of cake and a carb heavy dinner yesterday with family over, and I'm due totm soon so that caught me by surprise. Maybe the extra steps are helping!

Hope everyone has a good Monday!!

10kstepsaday · 02/03/2026 18:24

Checking in for the day!
I went for a lunch time walk in the sunshine today!! So happy spring is on its way!!

Tomorrow I have a day off and am joining in with a community litter pick - so that will hopefully help me get lots of steps in 🤩
