Step Challenge

I usually don't jump on the band wagon of fitness trends, but I started a step challenge for the new year. On January 1st, people from a few different cities and states are going to compete against each other for the most steps in a single month.
After seeing people join the step challenges around me, I couldn't deny that it was motivating people and was causing people to lose weight. I opted the challenge to my clients, then decided I would step it up a bit (no pun intended), and get all the people I knew to join in on the fun. So now there are people from all over communicating to each other about the progress they want to make.

I purchased a pedometer because I don't like the idea of having to wear a bracelet while I type at work and I also don't want to have to keep my phone near me for certain apps. Below is the amazon link:

For $14 and many customer reviews and consumer reports saying this device was one of the easiest and best, I thought it couldn't hurt. So I'm going to get involved with my clients and see if I can make my step count higher.

I'm pretty excited to see where this takes myself and the other who have joined. The month of January is going to be interesting!!
