I could be bothered to do mine today!!! u see Im bored of it all ready!!!!

Put mine on my belt after I got dressed this morning, about 11 o'clock ... now nearly 7pm and I'm on 3,426. Not very healthy, am I?

The worrying thing is, I'd have been quite pleased about my level of activity today otherwise - we went to a National Trust house and wandered round that, and the gardens.

Well I could never see how anyone could do 10,000 steps in a day unless they are going for a 5 mile run in addition to working,playing,housework and all the minutae of a typical day.
I reckon those who said they had done 5000 steps have calibrated theirs wrongly because try as I may I could never get more than 2000 steps day with my WW one.It's a good one that I BOUGHT and have now lost accidently on purpose because I became enslaved to it.

I was about to order one, then I saw the "winners" promo thing, and I ordered one in the name of my mate instead

Well I have done precisely 0 (zero) steps with mine, the kids nicked it and I have seen bugger all of it since.

greencreeper · 16-10-2004, 21:33

Humf. I was going to order a few more but it knows my IP address

I'll have to nip on the Net at work when no one's looking.

I predict that most of you will have thrown them in a drawer by the end of the month.Mind you may well have to ferret them out for the New Year.

I tried various proxies - no joy

It must see my IP address rather than the proxy

If you want PM your details over and I'll use one of my 'other' connections, or try a free dialup, if you have a modem connected

It works now

Very strange

It'll be interesting to see how far I walk. It's about a ten minute walk to/from the bus stop from/to work. I'm always up and down stairs - my PC is upstairs. I walk to my mate's house maybe 3 or 4 times a week - about a five minute walk. Then there's the walk to/from the bus stop from/to my parents - about ten minutes. Oh and shopping at Tesco. I reckon I can do the 10,000 easy.

I can see someone with too much time on their hands building a web site for the Cable Forum Walk-0-Meter team league table scores.

Oh sorry that person wouldn't do very well with their own score as instead of walking they'd be stuck in front of a keyboard.

Well, I managed 5,380 yesterday, and that was with a nice long walk at lunchtime. Anyone know how many steps is considered 'healthy'? I must admit, I thought I'd done rather better than this, it was a very long walk.
