100,217 steps to be exact, covering 43 miles. Walking is my main form of exercise, usually I aim for 10,000 steps per day, but this week I had more than that, so pushed on a bit more to get over 100,000.  The days I walk the most are the days I push the lawn mower!

Good on you and well done! Wish I could say the same.

Well done you,I mostly do 10,000 a day but Tuesday 4th I did 16,877 & Saturday 8th 17,605. After looking at what you achieved I decided I’d look back & add mine up. A total of 81, 840, so not as good as you but not bad.
Did you know the target of 10,000 steps was plucked from thin air I was reliably informed when at work (NHS) !

I hear that health professionals now recommend 7000 steps as a good goal for most able-bodied people, but nothing wrong with doing more, as long as you are not getting blisters, sprains or other injuries.

My usual is somewhere between 70,000 to 80,000 steps a week. Your total tops that, so good on you as well!

That's fantastic. I'm aiming for 10,000 a day at the moment and it's always a bit disheartening when I've spent a few hours working on the allotment and my step count is only a few thousand.

I have AS, a disease affecting the spine and it's helped with exercise (I also have degenerative spinal disease that is aggravated by exercise, but that's another story) and I'm on a team that takes part in a global step challenge every May for people with AS. But they allow you to convert other activities, such as gardening, into steps so it all counts.

My sympathy is with you, whaleroad.  You’re doing the best thing for your condition in taking regular exercise !  But don’t overdo the digging

Set a new personal daily steps record.  After a long hike in the mountains, came home an tackled most of cutting the lawn, plus some additional steps added here and there.

New record, 38276 steps on Sept. 2, 2023. Equals 16.46 miles.

My old record was 37854 steps on May 3, 2019. Different place in the mountains, but otherwise a similar day.
