Been running a pedometer because my phone had an app that just did it.

Found out I am averaging about 5 miles a day (over 10,000 steps)

Monday....was over 23,000 steps and 13.2 miles.....and I have help! That was the first day of townhomes at a resort and a restaurant that night.

no wonder we are whooped out!

That app would be too depressing for me. On 5/19 you did over 23,000 steps, over 13 miles, but the app says you only burned 1600 calories. A Big Mac, fries and a milkshake and you're back to square one....

I'm gonna check this out myself. I'm curious now. We do mainly residential and I can't even tell you how many staircases I go up and down as most homes are two stories and even three story townhomes here in our area

Part of the app also shows how much up and down you do as well in a day.

It is on my Samsung S5.

It is called S Health and I also had it on my S4

Kind of cool app. Keep in mind you not only are doing the walking, you are running the wand and doing other lifting, so this calorie burn is only based on a walk situation.

I believe it does also show running and other types of exercise on the app too.

Pretty cool overall and I was surprised how much a person pays attention.

I was just getting ready for bed, walking the dogs and etc.....and I hit today's 10,000 mark.

But who would want to ruin a great day of exercise by eating all that garbage?
