Walk 2000 miles in 2017

Myself and bugslet have decided to target walking 2000 miles in 2017. Although a big target, I think it is achievable with consistent effort. Anyone who wants to join us, feel free to post on this thread. Also feel free to post updates on your progress. Good luck and stride on!:beer:

Only now I’ve been brave enough to check my totals.

I made it 1849.15 miles, 4,237,403 steps and 13,475 floors in 2017. Although technically there would have been more from the few times I forgot to put my tracker on after charging, over the year that probably would have accounted for around 50 miles.

I’m still seeing as a win because minus broken ankle I would have done it with plenty extra in the bank.
