Can you believe it? 2022 is already half gone. Best get yourself outside before you miss the whole year! And a reminder that if you happen to see this for the first time mid-month, jump on in; there is no need to wait for another challenge to start next month.
How It Works
The primary purpose of these monthly challenges is to encourage you to set and hit your daily step goals for the month; though many of us track other things as well, like body weight exercises, sleep, trips to the gym, logging food, etc. This is not a competition to see who can do the most of whatever, instead it is a challenge to measure your consistency. So whether you do 1k, 5k, 10k or even 40k steps a day, this is measuring how many days out of the monthly total you can hit your goal.
Some might have a constant goal of 10k steps every single day and others might have a variable goal throughout the week, (and some might even plan days off!) for example.
Monday -> Friday = 10k steps a day
Sat & Sun = “6k steps a day,” or “not tracking”
Regardless of how you structure your daily goals, the only thing that matters for the monthly challenge is whether or not you reach what you set out to do.
Suggested Posting Format
1) Post either your constant or variable step goal.
2) Keep track of the # of daily goals achieved out of the monthly minimum and or monthly total
Picture Scavenger Hunt — 3 pictures
The theme this month is a parade, a celebration, or other outside event or a famous landmark. In the US there should be plenty of material on or around July 4. Elsewhere it might be a market or someplace near you that regularly shows up in the paper or on television.
Posting
Although you certainly don’t have to post daily, you’ll likely stay closer to what you set out to do by updating the thread several times/week
Injury Notice
If you injure yourself during the month and need to scale back due to the injury, then all you have to do is adjust your goal for that period. If you normally do 10k steps a day but pull a hamstring and decide to do minimal walking (2k steps a day), then all you have to do is change your goal.

Visiting with my sister over the weekend and painted some rocks 🙂 The impressive Starry Night rock was painted by my son. We plan to scatter the rocks throughout the town with the hopes that someone will find one and it will lift their spirits.

@Carrie71 - I would definitely smile if I ran across one of your painted rocks in the wild. Great idea. @NellyG -- a waterfall is always a celebration. On that note, you know the pool party is over when mom picks up the pools and dad leads the way home.
