Week 1 - Level Up Team Challenge at Work

Running ShoesYesterday marked the end of the first week of the level up challenge at work. It has been an interesting experience so far. My goal this week was simple - 18,000 steps total. That's an average of 2,572 per day. Since this was the first week, I really tried to not do anything special - I wanted to see where I was naturally. I was surprised to see that I fell short of even that goal! I walked 16,857 steps for an average of 2,408 per day.

The goal is to be up to 10,000 steps per day at the end of the 8 week period. So I'm going to have to take some steps (no pun intended) to get there. I'm going to start small - step one will be going for a walk today (getting back into the Summer routine of walking with Lori). Then I plan to do a bit more walking around campus to/from class - that should bring the numbers up a bit.

We'll see where this gets me at the end of the week and adjust to see just how I can get to the 10K per day.
