We were both using our pedometers religiously for quite a while, until the batteries died in them a couple months ago. I had originally planned to go to the store right away and purchase watch batteries, as I wanted to keep our running total up-to-date. Well fast forward a couple months, and I just managed to get to the store to buy batteries yesterday.
I installed the batteries today, and was all set to walk at least 15K steps. Generally I can knock them out by lunch time. Today however, the rain started as soon as I went out for my lunch and continued to about the time I got back. If I would have dressed properly for the rain, this wouldn't have been a problem, but I left my coat at the office as I didn't think it would rain.
I still managed to get 8,000 steps in so far, and we still have to do our after-work walk with the pups, so I shouldn't have any issues making 10,000, but I don't know if I'll make 15,000 plus.
Speaking of walking, I came across this blog from a guy who decided to walk across America. He posts a single pic each day of where he is, who he's met, etc. Check it out at I'm Just Walkin Blog.
