The group owner has published a new challenge. Check out the link below to get started.

Let’s congratulate our overachievers for getting one million steps (or close to it) in just two months of the three-month challenge. Don't forget that we still have another month to go in our challenge. Even if you feel that you can't get a million steps, you can still finish strong. Set a goal that's higher than your average for the past two months and then smash it.

Congrats on finishing the first month of the challenge. Even if you haven't hit the target of around 326k, I hope that you've at least made the effort to increase your daily average. If you missed the goal this month, don't get discouraged. July is a new month. Strive to do a little better and get closer to hitting it in the next month. For everyone who hit the goal, keep up the good work!

Get more steps in your day. It is motivating to watch the steps add up as the day progresses! Use these strategies to add more steps to your day: Go on a 10-minute walk at a 3 mph pace. This short walk will add about 1,000 steps to your day, enough to bring significant health benefits! Get off at a bus stop farther from your destination, and walk the rest of the way. Get up and move during TV commercials. Challenge a buddy to see who can get the most steps by the end of the day. Walk around the house while talking on the phone. Use a restroom that is farther away. If productive and appropriate, go talk to a coworker in person instead of calling or messaging. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Take a work break and dance to your favorite song. Be "inefficient" a few times a day by taking extra trips up and down the stairs to put away items.

Be careful getting your steps in. It's hot out here!
