nyxnko_'s Sport Relief blog

So... I started this thing yesterday by downloading the app. I'm a bit of a lazy child and honestly, I've never been very good at carrying my phone with me so that it counts my steps properly :tongue:

So hopefully, this blog will get me to walk more and just move around a bit more :biggrin:

Current daily goal: 8000 steps (as of 26/02/18)

People who might be interested? :love:

Thanks

i didnt have school yesterday and it's not a typical day but i got up at around 6-7 and then I was going up and down the stairs for most of the morning because my mum doesn't like having water upstairs so it makes us go downstairs a lot to drink water during study breaks, etc.
i went out at around 1pm to a housewarming party and somehow, I managed to walk a lot there.
I had meant to go out for a walk once I came home but I got home at 7pm and by then it was a bit too dark to go out so I just ended up walking the stairs again :tongue:

but Yeah, that was yesterday
plus, I made a conscious effort to move around a lot more than usual :biggrin:

Arghhhhhhhh!!! :argh:

So... what happened today was really annoying. I had a few problems with the SR app so I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it again. But... being slightly stupid, I FORGOT TO RECONNECT MY TRACKER!! So I stupidly went and walked a solid 10,000 steps today and that SR app didn't even count it :cry:

I'm so annoyed!!! :banghead:

Arghhhhhhhh!!
But let's be positive!! I managed to hit my goal of 6.5k and that's what matters :love:

This is a bit early but here's what happened today :biggrin:

I managed to get over 10000 steps!! Truth be told, I went out for a walk with my sister (who is a very slow walker) but I did manage to get like 4000 steps then :biggrin:

Something really weird is that the SR app seems to think I've done double the actual number of steps that I've done, which is kinda annoying

I've upped my goal to 8000 steps because 6500 seems a little low rn :tongue:

As you can probably see from the pic below, I took my phone into school to count steps and then switched it off during lunch and forgot to switch it back on afterwards so it didn't count my steps :cry:

But it's okay because I managed to go out for a walk :biggrin:

which upped my step count :woo:

Not my most productive day for actual counts (will be doing steps, but without my tablet). I'm almost at 600 though so I'm lined up to at least get my 1,000 target counted. :smile:

Does this app require being open for it to work?

Good luck getting the rest of your 'steps'!! It's a pity your tablet isn't very accurate :tongue:

You can connect your trackers. For example, if you have a Fitbit, you can connect that. If not, I think your phone's default health app should work too. Like, I've got Samsung Health connected to the Sport Relief app.
