People Stonewall!  We had another awesome  day yesterday. So far we've  walked a collective  33064 steps, 156 miles, or 251 kilometers. That's the equivalent of running the Marathon des Sables, or six regular marathons. Keep up the good  work and I'll  see you tomorrow. Remember get  out there and  have  fun.

#Pride10 raffle ticket sales have doubled last years,
With 3259 tickets sold.. the prize pot has reached 651,800,000.EC (at the time of writing this and it's still growing daily) making this the biggest Raffle in Stonewall Fleets history.
Due to the unprecedented sales of this years tickets.. we have added a few extra prizes.
As the Prize money has doubled, we will now be splitting one of the 50% EC pot prizes in half.
Making it a 25% / 25% prize.
Doing this adds a new prize to the pot.. and at the time of writing this, a 25% winner will get 163million EC
(and the EC pot will undoubtedly gain more during the next few days)

Other Prizes added:-
- Section 31 Science destroyer worth 360 mil - donated by stonewall fleet
- x10 more master keys - donated by @andreamaria
- an extra pixel commision has been added by @balduranne

(take a look at the First post on this thread for more details and the 23 prizes on offer)

Kiki,

Cheers.

Awesome job yesterday Stonewall! Lead by @Chipz416 we had a grand total of 153714, that's  72 miles  or 115 kilometers. That's  more than  distance to reach space from  sea level. Keep up the awesome work! I'm  proud of  each of you!

Just shy of 16k for my first day it looks like so not a bad start but i realise i am busy friday-sunday and will likely get very few steps in that time so i need to be busy Monday to Thursday it seems.

Great ... I made 10k steps today, so completed the "Karl Ulrich" threshold - named by my fellow citizen from Munich. Happy gay pride from Munich!

BTW: @saintplazma hope you accept steps in German (="Schritte") 

#FitToBePride

I just saw this--count me in! Just got back on the diet/exercise routine this morning after coming home from vacation, so the timing is perfect! I will screenshot my Fitbit app and send it each day. Thanks for setting this up; I love these step challenges!

I'll join in on #FitToBePride. Maybe I can squeeze out a few thousand steps or so.

Michlo brings up a good point, we prob should have included in the OP some encouragement examples from members past experiences with our Fitbit challenges.

Ive ran several of these step challenges in the past... we had a wheelchair bound member wanting to join in, .. and she took on our Zombie Walk challenge as part of her rehabilitation .. she did fantastic as you can see in the link... and i had some really heartwarming private feedback from her.

We really do try to think of everyone when we think up these game Ideas.. but sometimes.. It is hard to tick every box, However.. we have a great number of alternatives to get steps in. example, The great thing about having a pedometer on your phone is you can use it as though your pumping some Iron.. and it will register that as a step... or sit in an upright position on a chair near your stairs, tuck your phone into your sock and lift your leg up and down on that step.
Sure it wont register as much as walking around.... but anyone can join in, and these challenges are designed for having fun with fitness and seeing how far you can get with a bunch of other friends...
im super sure if anyone out there reading this who wants to join in.. but see's it as a life challenge, drop @saintplazma a private message and you both can sort something out... we are fleeties here and we got each others backs!

Looks like a fun challenge!  

Technical question: Can I count “steps” that I get from swimming backward on my bicycle on the back of a dolphin while on my elliptical while soaring underneath a petrodactyl? Or do I have to get steps by walking only?  Asking for a friend!

I'll  allow  this as long as the dolphin  is equipped with a reverse ratcheting  left  handed monkey wrench.

But with 6-7k a day, you will be at the threshold in about 3 to 4 days, right? So you would pass by at least the first three hexagons on the roadmap, and even win 2 SWC! :)

That was just my personal example, mate.  This isn't about me. :P  There may be others for whom even that is a challenge, that's all. :)

Sign me up.  I am up for it

Hiya,

to be more inclusive, I would suggest lowering the thresholds.  Not everyone is similarly abled or has the time.  For myself, personally, I'm usually at 6-7k a day and since I work from home and have back problems, I may not even get to your lowest threshold of 20k.  I doubt I'm the only one in that situation.

Cheers.

We’ve had a few of these step challenges over the years and I can say that the 80k hasn’t been out of reach for a lot of people, so I imagine that the results of the previous challenges probably guided how the numbers were settled on.  

Also, being that this is a challenge, I think the idea is for us to challenge ourselves to do more than we might normally accumulate in our regular day to day routines by motivating us to hit the treadmill or go for a few runs to try to keep pace with other fleeties.  

Like you, I probably won’t make the 80k, but even making any of the milestones will be a fun group event to participate in!

Mark me down!

It didn't count my bicycle step last year so I guess not;

Sign me and Julie (Allehandra) up o7 #FitToBePride
Let's hope it actually works for me this time

Ah dang I did 20k on Friday I was too early! Can't wait to rack up my steps
