The first week of aiming for 10,000 steps a day was generally a success with only one day of not achieving my goal. The "low" was on a Wednesday when I decided to work from home and took it easy. Although I felt guilty about only taking 1,644 steps, my body needed an easy day, so I gave it one. Similarly, I'm working from home today and will unliekly meet my target of 10,000 steps. The high day during my first week was Thursday, when I still felt guilty about my low day previously, so went for a long run at work over lunch.

Following Heather O'Reilly's advice, I'm trying to do a better job this week at not letting the highs get me too high, or the lows get too low. I have found ways to incorporate more movement into my days without going for runs. That said, I set an all-time high step count earlier this week while attending a 3-hour ultimate frisbee tryout. More on my 18,586 step day in a future entry :)

Keep moving my friends!
