Fitbit @ Walt Disney World

[Steven]

I'm going in January, and wondered if anyone has gone, what has been your general step count after a day in the parks? 

[disneybruin]

I haven't been to Walt Disney World, but I go to Disneyland several times per month. I walked 25,000 steps on my last visit.

[Steven]

Awesome, thanks. I believe Magic Kingdom is a little larger so between that and walking around at the resort I should clock 30,000 daily. Now, just time to fit in a nap somewhere. 🙂

[disneybruin]

Also, my trip was only about 6 hours long, so there's even more potential to exceed that if you will be there all day. 🙂

I think I averaged 25000/day for 5 days straight at Disneyland once, but I was the 'runner' in the group, running around getting Fast Passes and such.

Hey Steven, I live down here and the most I have done park hopping has been in the 30's. Generally I have only gotten in the 20's, but since I live here I dont go from open to close either. Usually maybe 6 hours or so. Keep in mind, there is a whole lot of standing around or moving slowly that doesnt register either, at least not on my fit bit. Have a great time! 

[Steven]

Thanks so much for sharing your experiences. Definitely seems like I'll be able to clock a good amount of steps in. Now if I can just stay away from the Dole Whips and Hot Dogs 🙂

The first weekend in January is the marathon.  I generally get 80,000 steps during that 😉

Otherwise, the parks average 5-10 miles a day.

The best nap spot in Magic Kingdom is Carousel of Progress!  It's a 15-20 minute attraction and I usually get a great power nap in.

[Steven]

That's mean, it's one of my favorite rides lol 🙂

[bluesquarex]

Oh no, don't get me wrong! It's one of my favorite rides, too. My family can quote most of the ride. But it is a good nap spot, too!

Woohoo! Great job! Thanks for sharing 

[Mary]

That's what I average in full days at Disneyland.  

[Steven]

To follow up, just curious as to what your average was? I'm going again next week, going to see if I can beat my steps haha

9/6/14- 27,412 (arrival day)

9/7/14- 24,667 (MK) Showers off and on.

9/8/14-25,513 (EPCOT)

9/9/14-19,475 (HS) It rained a lot this day. 

9/10/14- 21,000 (MK) We did the Keys to the Kingdom Tour so 5 hours was for that. Totally worth it!

9/11/14- 14,131 (AK) Wild Afric Trek was really cool! You need to do it at least once in your life 🙂

We had a blast! We had the dining plan so we spent a lot of time sitting and eating. When you get back follow up and let us know how you did. Have a great trip!

[Steven]

Looks like you had a blast! I am definitely looking forward to the food (don't tell my Fitbit, though)!

[Kari1212]

Are you back yet, Steven? How did you do?

[SunsetRunner]

I was there a couple of weekends ago and got about 15,000 steps after spending about 5-6 hours at EPCOT and Magic Kingdom.
