Like to join in my pedometer challenge?

Mine has reset itself twice today which I am very annoyed about! Oh well x

Can I join - pretty please?

I have been waiting for a week for my pedometer to come. I have what I think is a decent one and I have been wearing it today. I have a fairly sedentary job so only got to 1962 steps - put it on about 10.o'clock.

I was very proud of myself and showed my husband when I got home and he said right then - lets see how accurate it is. He asked me to march up and down in the room and counted my steps and for every 10 steps it added one....grr. It is an omron one - I thought they were a good make. Anyone else tested the accuracy of theirs?

Mine has a programming thing when you start it up, it tells you to press such and such a button, walk ten steps, then measure the distance you walked, divide it by ten for distance per step, and input it as your single stride figure. Then it becomes a hell of a lot more accurate! xxx

11k yesterday at 7pm, then took it off and went out for dinner. (The pedometer didn't compliment my outfit!!)

There are instructions on mine to measure the stride length 10st - which I did but it is still measuring more than it should mind you I have only tried it inside the house and if I know it does slightly more perhaps that doesnt matter.... ho hum - I am doing something that is the main thing I suppose! Tis stuck firmly on waistband today. What make is yours by the way - for future reference?
