10,000 Steps Update

I think over the course of the first three days I had the pedometer I totaled 10,000 steps. So no, I’m not that close. But I think if I had been doing 10000 I would be much thinner, so it isn’t that much of a surprise to me.

Today it went above freezing and I decided to take a quick walk at lunchtime to boost the numbers. My pedometer is cool because if you walk more than 60 steps a minute for over 10 minutes, it counts them (and the duration) in a separate “aerobic steps” category. So I did 2730 aerobic steps in 25 minutes. I’ve got half my steps in for the whole day right now. I would have walked for longer, but it started raining on me and I didn’t have a hat or an umbrella. Oh well, I’m just happy I finally got some aerobic steps registered!

Until it gets warmer out, I just don’t know how I’m going to hit 10k. I hate walking in the cold, I really do. Plus we’ve still got snow in the forecast this week. Oy.
