48,000 steps in a week




I am walking like crazy and increasing my steps from the previous week. The last week of august I walked over 48,000 steps, averaging over 6,800 steps per day. That equates to over 22 miles walked according to my fitbit for that week. My calorie count for that week was over 21,500 calories burned.

Next week I will get on the scale and check my blood pressure and post those results. In the mean time I will continue to push and make myself healthy as possible.

Speaking of walking, my wife and I are walking for my company Optum Healthcare for the Kidney foundation to raise fund to help fight this disease. Our walk at a local park will take place on September 27, 2015. Over 25 million suffer from this disease including my mother. See link below if you want to help sponsor me, thanks in advance.
