Looking at The Numbers
For the month of April 2020, I achieved my daily step goal on 30 days. The month saw me walk 580,513 steps with a daily average of 19,350 steps.
The day with the most steps was the 22nd of April with 22,662 steps. The day with the lowest steps was the 25th of April, with just 16,234 steps.
Walking Thoughts for April
After breaking the record for the most steps in a month in March, I expected April would be a little off that pace. However, it was not off by much at all, just 117 steps per day would have had me on the same pace.
To beat the record again in a month with just 30 days would require a much higher daily average though. I would have needed 20,115 steps per day to break last month’s record outright.
Two records that I am still looking at breaking this year are the top day and top week. Those two records both relate to week 44 in 2015. The total steps for the week was 167,174. While the record for the most steps in a day stands at 30,231.
There has been little to talk about this month otherwise. Isolation or lock down means most days are kind of like groundhog day. Just repeating the same thing day after day. But we still keep on walking and meeting out goals.
