Great job, Michelle!!!

And LOL your totals match mine.

The way MY overall totals read we are at 605,370! WOW do you BELIEVE we have done 600,000 steps!!!

Still to go = 394,630

LOL but if Lena is correct about her totals we might have to do a few extra steps to make up for my math.

Yesterday was a bit more laid-back for me (again), but I did get in a 40-minute workouts, so it helped bounce my total up 5362 steps for yesterday.

Thanks for your condolences about my bird. I really appreciate it.

Hmmm not sure where I missed, but your number is closer to right than mine was, Dance. I went back and totalled and re-totalled. Through Thursday, March 9, I contributed 192,039. You had 192,221 because the 16k day was 16,686, not 16,868.

I haven't a clue what I missed to only come up with 177K total .

In any event, thanks for catching my error, Dance! Sorry for the confusion.

My contribution for yesterday, March 10 is 8,729, bringing my (newly corrected) total to 200,768.

I haven't been here in about two weeks, but I have 70,000 steps to add.

Thanks Lena... I have corrected my total and that is great as now we only have to walk another couple hundred steps instead of 30,000 or so <GGGG>

Lydia, I know it is hard for you to lose your much loved pet!!

Corrected totals are

Steps walked = 613,917

Still to go = 368,083

Lena, congratulations on passing the 200,000 mark! I have a little over 100 more steps to go to make it LOL

Oh yay, Kayley! While I was writing my message you posted another 70,000 yipppppeeeee so that really made the total skyrocket and I already need to update it. Way to go!!!!!

Kayley you must be excited... VERY soon you will see those "2" s yipppppppppeeeeeeee for you. I am excited for you.

NEW totals are 683,917

Still to go = 316,083

We will make the 700,000 mark today with any luck at all LOL

Yay Michelle... you did it! You put us over the 700,000 mark... WOW

Total steps taken = 708,455

Still to go = 291,545

Well, well, well... Saturdays and Sundays are *supposed* to be my Slacker Days, right? So, what on earth came over me yesterday?

The weather just beckoned me to come outside. I strapped on the IPod and ended up taking a 45 minute walk around the sub-division. And, I found out my outside pace is faster than my normal treadmill pace. Songs that are usually quite fine to treadmill to were somewhat too slow for outside. So I had to kick it up a notch and find the really hard-thumpin' ones to walk to. Oh, yes, the arms and legs were pumpin'!

Remember last Saturday's pathetic number (1,792). Well, yesterday was much higher! 8,725. Not a 10K day but VERY good for me for a weekend! I'm happy with it!

Total contribution from me (through March 11) = 209,493. Who knows what today will bring?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Great job, Lydia! 5,000+ steps for a laid-back day is wonderful!

Congratulations, Dance, for hitting 200K+!!! That's absolutely fantastic!

Kayley, what a great contribution! Keep going at that pace and you're going to need new walking shoes soon!

And Michele, 13K+ on a Saturday??? My hat's off to you!!! Woohoo!

At this rate, I'm betting we hit the Million by April Fool's Day!

You know, I could've sworn that I posted in here this morning. Like, I can almost remember typing stuff up... but I didn't!

Yesterday was very very lazy. That is until I went for a walk. For 26 minutes. I decided to explore the neighborhood, see how other people take care of their lawns. Coincidentally, I saw a very beautiful lawn with a GORGEOUS flowering tree somewhere in this neighborhood. I sort of got lost, so I don't know where though . In that 26 minutes, I took 2859 aerobic steps and went a total of 1.04 miles. Mind, I'm a shorty (5'1"), so that's why I took so many steps and went hardly anywhere, hahaha. So my total for yesterday was 4773 with more than half of the steps being aerobic. Not bad for a Saturday!

My total so far is 68,334 steps. 21.95 miles. I feel like a wimp compared to you all

Edit: Oh, and I must keep in mind NOT to wear flip-flops the next time I decide to go for a walk. I got horrible blisters and both of my feet! Sneakers sneakers sneakers *mutters*

Woo hoo nice going everybody!! LOL Lydia... yes sneakers sneakers sneakers!!!

Could you please check this against your totals. And THANKS to all of you for posting your totals so we can see if there are errors.

I say we go for it!!!

And LOL Lena... WE have never said you were a slacker LOLOL... you definitely are NOT. Keep on moving those feet LOL

I arranged for a ride home from a church potluck tonight so I can walk there... whew it is that 3 mile thing almost straight uphill again! I don't want to walk home after dark. I will have to put my food into a backpack LOL. But I ought to get in some serious steps for a Sunday... usually MY slacker day LOL.

Whoops! You are absolutely right, Dance. I am at 93,367. I've been writing my steps in my journal and I forgot that I was on page 2! hahaha, thanks for letting me know. I'm a dork Well hey, I'm almost at 100k, so I'm happy

LOL Lydia, I am glad it is right... I am SO horrid at math that I always assume it is me LOL. Thank God for Excel!!!!! Besides I didn't want us to have to walk those extra 30,000 steps or so!!!
