10,000 Steps

This is going to be harder than I thought.  I purchased a FitBit to begin tracking my activity.  Today was the first day I wore it.  The standard according to FitBit - and also a physician I had been seeing, is at least 10,000 steps a day.

Today was my day to volunteer at Greenfield Village.   I do not go to the gym on those days since I usually spend most of the day on my feet and also do a lot of walking and stairs and come home exhausted.  I assumed - no problem with that standard.

Boy was I wrong.  Got home and I had only done 7,000+ steps (it must be measuring wrong).  So after dinner I ended up going for a half hour walk to make the 10,000.  

This is going to be harder than I thought.
