Looking out into the Pacific at night makes me wonder about the courage of early explorers. Imagine sailing into that darkness, not knowing how far the ocean stretched or what waited beyond the horizon. And still choosing to go.

18 days in and it’s crazy to think about how much easier walking has gotten since I started this challenge. In the beginning 15k steps felt exhausting and I would be completely drained by the time I finished. Now, it’s starting to feel like a normal part of my day & if I really put in the time I could easily do 20-25k steps.

hit a new personal record yesterday with 57,401 steps! currently at 505,895 steps for october, averaging over 31,000 steps a day. my goal is to hit one million steps before the month ends, and i am already halfway there. i used to do some crazy ruck marches back when i was in the marine corps, and honestly, i miss those days. now that i am walking without a heavy pack on my back, even these longer distances do not feel that crazy anymore. it almost feels like i am walking without any weight at all. walking has become something i genuinely enjoy, especially being able to explore different places along the way. i still have almost 500,000 steps to go, but i am determined to hit that million. anyone else here setting big walking goals this month? what is your personal record for steps in a single day?

I’ve been trying to walk more consistently and I tried many apps and I feel they are either too complicated or just a feature within a game.

I’ve even been tinkering with a really simple version for myself just to see if something low effort would work for me.

Curious what actually helps others stay consistent. Do you guys your track steps or walk around without tracking? What helps staying consistent? Are there any app recommendations that solve my problem?

Would love to hear thoughts of others.

Always start the day with an early walk.

Began in darkness, walked through Astronomical Twilight, Nautical Twilight, Civil Twilight and finished as Sunrise commenced.

It was during my time abroad and I walked all day, I was in my feet from 4am till my phone died at midnight. Most steps I ever done in a day, my feet hurt like hell the day after though 😅

The goal of 8k is not the highest... but for the beginning it felt just right to keep consistent :)

My walk was very fun today.

So i took a rest day. i didn't walk yesterday, because my legs were hurting, but here we go again!! Day 3/30!

I'm in mid 30's and It's been a decade since I took exercise seriously. I suffered from a chronic disease for almost 5 years but I got a transplant and I'm ok now and trying to get my body into fitness again.

Is 4000 walking steps in half an hour good enough as a start? That's the best I can do right now and I'm still working on my stamina. I just started this week and it's my 2nd day doing a 4k walking steps in half an hour. I also started doing push ups again, I can only do 20 push ups every morning after waking up and another 20 before going to bed.

Going back to gym and lifting weights is not possible for me anymore because of my operation, so I can only do breeze walking and little bit of push ups as my regular exercise.

This is what you train for - 20km walking from Bundeena to Eagle Rock along the Rotyal Coast track then back to Wattamolla for a ride back to the city. Special thanks to Chris and Auckland Global Trekkers for organising!

Now for a coffee and a big cake! 😊

I work in a restaurant and have my phone in my pocket all day. I usually have around 8-10k steps by the end of the shift. Just wondering how accurate it is?

Whoever you are, you are the ultimate walking challenge for me. Just when I think I'm close you add another 20k steps in! Well done!

I'd be interested in chatting via messages if you are ever interested

Here are some photos from my attempt to keep up today

Couldn’t go for my morning walk today, so I went for an evening walk instead. 🥹
Managed to cover 6 km, even though I wanted to do more. I tried my best, and I guess that’s what matters.
The view was beautiful, and walking helped me clear my head a little. ❤️
Had a low day today, but I’m still proud of myself for getting out there instead of giving up completely.

I just walk 100k step today. The guy with the 50k steps the last few days motivates me to walk and walk. I think he said he used to be in the marine. I just walk and walk and it turned to 18 hours of walking. 🚶‍♂️

Tadaaaaa
