Just curious - is that 4-6 miles all at once or is it the daily total? While I walk my 2 miles divided into 2x a day, my fit bit says I walk over 5 miles/day. That's just my usual trotting around doing my animal chores, housework, & other things. I've noticed that the total mileage goes way down if I have to drive anywhere. Too bad I can't walk to town.
