Anyone keen on doing a S Health step challenge?

 

I'd be keen to have a challenge against a few people..

 

100'000 steps within 7 days..

 

First one wins..

Sadly I have a major impediment to participation. Laziness. Having said that, I hope you find some worthy competitors and wish you all the best of luck. I'm going to lie down now, the thought of that much energy expended has made me exhausted :)

I am genuinely surprised more people aren't taking up this challenge.

I would but i'm lucky to get between 6 - 10,000 steps each day.  that is what happen when you are on your butt for 8 hours a day and then use weight machines and exercise bike.

I'm dubious about the accuracy of S-health's pedometer function (accelerometer based).

 

It gives me wildly different (33% CV) step counts for my walk to work each day.

 

How have other found it?

Just reading the forums on android central- sounds like its a bit of a mission to add anyone. I have privately messaged the user to try and sort out
