Default June 30-Day Walking Challenge

Walking for Weight Loss and Physical/Mental Health

Walking can be a great way to lose weight if you have physical limitations that prevent you from doing other exercises. 🥾

You can still get in a great workout and burn extra calories throughout the week just by walking.

Although this might not be as many calories as running or jogging, these calories can add up by the end of the week and turn into pounds lost.

Just getting up and moving your body by taking a walk is a great place to start.

Have A Goal.

Setting a specific goal will also make sure that you stay accountable and get enough walking in to make a difference and help you lose weight.

Is anyone interested in doing a 30-daywalking challenge with me? 🏆

Math Behind a Walking Challenge

An average person in the United States takes 3,000 to 4,000 steps a day (about 1.5 – 2 miles), and most walking challenges motivate participants to take at least 10,000 steps in a day. For context, most people burn an average of 30-40 calories per 1,000 steps, so 10,000 steps would equate to burning approximately 300-400 calories for the average person.

I was curious how many out there would be interested in starting with this 30-day walking challenge? I am out of shape and I thought that I could clear my mind and work on my exercise also.

We could start this Next Wednesday, June 1st.

I recently bought a Fitbit and I love the information that it tracks. If we start next Wednesday, that’ll give everybody time to get their gear together. You can use a pedometer app on your mobile phone to track your daily steps or the distance of your workouts. Apps are an easy way to get started with tracking, since most people carry their cellphones everywhere they go.

I was thinking of setting a monthly goal, and posting something like this daily:

Date…………30-day step goal………..Steps………..Almost there 🏁
June 1………….….300,000………..………7,500……….292,500


"The longest journey begins with a single step."
I’ll see you Thursday, June 2nd as we start posting our results.
