Only 376,382 steps to go until I feel happy enough to go out for dinner.

Well Google says average steps a year is around 75k which seems low to me... anyway that's only 5 years till you can go out. If you break that down it's only 60 months..... also ubereats exists lol

No, average miles walked in a lifetime is 75k. Average steps a year is just under 2.5mil.

My job requires a lot of walking. 30k steps minimum a day. Honestly I've never felt better.

I do just over 8k a day walking to and from work 5 days a week and I'm on my feet all day while I'm at work.... Makes me wonder how many I really do in a work day 🤔

It's worth getting a step counter!

Most phones have a built in counter these days, maybe not super-accurate but gives you an eatimation.

A healthy amount should be 5-10k a day so that's already 3 million steps a year if you're proactive about it.

I think google is obviously counting people that hardly reach a thousand a day.
