10,000

I bought a pedometer (a new gadget, yay!) I haven't really been walking like I want to but I bought one anyway.  I want to be able to track my walks (when I actually do them) and the popular Run Keeper app wasn't working for me.  It would track my walk sort of but it massively overinflated the distance I traveled.  I guess the GPS had a hard time tracking me.

I decided to instead track my steps with a pedometer.  The number that is all over the internet is that you are supposed to walk 10,000 steps a day.  Today was my first day with the pedometer and I clocked in 5910.  That is actually better than I thought it ws going to be.  I really thought it would be 2 or 3,000.  Being a music teacher helps since I am constantly on my feet.  And now I have a goal in front of me.  Get to 10,000.  I'm going to get there a little at a time.  Goal #1 is to get to 6,000 on a consistent basis.  That should be easy.  Or easier on weekedays that is.  

Walk, walk, walk.

Kenny got one too and his goal is also 10,000. He finds that he does about half that like, much like you!
