Hello all! Once or twice, I made posts asking about ways to make a custom walking map or adventure, but after google searches failed me, I decided to make it myself on google docs. There's no integration with fitbit, and you have to move the tokens around manually, but it's the best I got. Maybe people would be interested in using it. It's based on the first world of Super Mario Bros 3.
SMB3 Walking map World 1
I've tried it before on my own, but I always seem to fizzle out before long. But maybe with more people I'd be better motivated to stick with it. Anyway, what I did was treat each arrow and location as one mile (or 2000 steps give or take), so it'd be ten miles to stage 1, another ten to stage 2, and so on. It'd be 95 miles to the castle, and the end of world 1. If this works out, I can make more maps like this, all the way to World 8 and Bowser's castle. If people want to join I can make tokens for them based on any character, object, enemy, or power up from the classic Mario games, or any SNES game really as along as the sprite isn't too big.
To be honest, I went back and forth on whether or not to post it. People here can get in crazy amounts of steps, and I'm nowhere near those sorts of levels. It can be kind of intimidating to read about people getting in 60,000 or 80,000 steps a day. But if there's anyone else out there who wants to join in some walking and likes old video games, maybe this map can help them too. I'd like to get a group going, not necessarily a competition, but just a way to compare distances and encourage one another.
