Yesterday 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.
