WOW! I am impressed! This group might actually "force" me to consider getting off of my butt on Sunday afternoon and logging in some miles.

LOL Michele... you just MIGHT make it to Seattle all by yourself!!

That is interesting that your pedometers reset themselves at midnight!!!! Are those the Omrons???

Misty: Yes mine is an Omron. I just got it about a week ago. I LOVE it! I have had several others but this one is great! Off to walk...see ya later.

I am glad I did not buy the HJ-105 -- I am checking it out and it is a "standard" model and does not have the neat features of the 112!

Hi Michele and thanks for the info. My OS does not have a radio and the clip is SO tight I have a hard time getting it onto my pants but then it does not fall off. But yesterday it actually took me at least 5 minutes to get the thing ON there! I never thought of attaching it to my nightshirt at hip level... will give that a try! I guess I am going to have to take a trip to Walmart! But I was just looking on eBay and there are some great deals there too so maybe I will bid on one. It would be good to have a spare anyway before I go on the cruise... I would be REALLY upset if something happened to mine and I could not get another one esp. with all that walking I plan to do LOL. Have to head off to church and then I think all of you have shamed...er I mean inspired me... to go out walking LOL

Hi everyone! I hope it's okay that I just joined the challenge. I posted my info in the sign-up thread, but to summarize live outside Chicago.

I don't have a pedometer, but walked on the treadmill yesterday (1.5 mi) and today (2.0 mi), for a total of 3.5 miles!

WWWoooo hooooo Wyllen! Great having you! Thanks for adding the miles! We are off to a fantastic start with 15 people yay!!!!!

Welcome Wyllenn, glad to have you along for the walk.

I just found the infamous Omron HJ-112 on Amazon for $19.99 with free shipping, plus if you link through this site 3FC will get a portion of the sale.

Good morning, good morning, good Sunday morning, everybody!!!

Wyllen! I'm so glad you decided to jump on in here! This is a great party! You're really off to a great start, too! I've travelled I-90 a lot, too, driving back and forth from Boston to various points in the Mid-West and back! I'd love, one day, to do the other half and head on out to the West Coast! Glad we're doing it virtually now!

I'm another HJ-112 fan -- have loved it since the moment I got it out of the box! Feel naked if it's not in my pocket. Sadly for me, I wasn't nearly as lucky on the price as some of you were (I paid $35) but it still was worth every penny!

Misti, you continue to amaze me with all your walking. You're aces!

Wow wow wow, Michele, 19K steps!!! Amazing!!!

And look at Lydia go!!! Over 3 miles, you are fantastic, lady!

Whoops, there goes Dee, zooming about on her blades! Go, Dee, go!

As for me, I just barely missed the mile... 1,919 steps . But today is another day, it's supposed to get wayyyyyy up to maybe 45 degrees and it's sunny, so I will probably be enticed outdoors for a bit of a stroll!

Great job, everyone! I'm so happy to see this project take off!!! Wheeeee!

I just ordered the HJ-112 from Amazon! This thread was just the incentive I needed -- been thinking about a pedo for a while!

Welcome wyllenn! This is great fun, I had actually gotten very lax about posting, and not very motivated, but decided a couple of days ago to move up my marathon to one that is run near my hometown on Thanksgiving weekend, so I have to get going. This is such a good kick in the rear for me, and informational and inspirational too. Hope you enjoy the trip as much as I am. Thanks to all you ladies for getting me back off my bottom and on my feet. Unfortunately, I have to go do some housework now before I can zoom around on my blades, but see you all on the road this afternoon!

Whew...just got back and I went for a 2.5 mile walk ...but hang on hope to have my 10000 steps in today! ......Welcome Wyllenn you will love your new pedo. I absolutely love mine and Im with you Michele I clip it on my undies the moment I get out of bed. Don't know how I walked without it!..Really works to motivate me to move a lot more....bye for now! blyn

Wow I went to Walmart and they didn't have it! I would order from Amazon but I don't think they take PayPal. I couldn't find any info that they do.

Yes but you already have most of one to count toward the next day's postings!!!

dee -- are you running an actual, honest to god, 26+ mile marathon? if so, have you done one before?
