Too much so, in fact -- coughing was adding thousands of steps to my days, so I had to take it off! Should be back to counting again by week's end.Erin M.

If you don't stop before that count, it adds them in.Margaret M.

Granted that this house is bigger, I'd still bet that you get at least a quarter of a mile.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07895569211498067204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2387314160873403151.post-37179161877275761562010-11-04T21:49:20.357-04:002010-11-04T21:49:20.357-04:00Very nice!

Which my trusty spreadsheet tells me adds up to 9.3 miles.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07895569211498067204noreply@blogger.com
