More steps than ever on a stormy day! 👣🏃💪💨🌊♨😎: February 24 2021
Dear friends, 🙋
I'm proud of my steps yesterday, especially because of the circumstances which led to them were very adverse! It was an extremely windy day and I had 3 important appointments in the next town, 30km away. The plan was a bus there, another 4 local buses while there, between appointments and the 6th bus home. However, after I got there after the first bus and charged my bus card; I was in for a surprise. I got on the first local bus to my foot doctors appointment, only to discover that my card wouldn't work on the buses computer and repeatedly turned the computer off; much to the bus drivers dismay! 😰
I only had enough cash left on me to get a coffee between appointments but I had to use it for bus fare. I kind of wished I hadn't used the rest to charge my card! 😔
At the doctors, I had my fourth mini surgery on the bottom of my left foot. After that my foot was very sensitive but I had no alternative but to walk the amount of kilometers it took to get me between the other appointments in different parts of town. 👣🏃💪
By the time I got home, my foot felt as if it was on fire! 👣🔥
Although my walking wasn't over for the day, my dog still needed / deserved a decent walk, so off we went! 👣💪🐶🐕😍
The photo I managed to take, even with the 50+km/hr wind blowing mercilessly, of the usually calm Mediterranean sea; should give you an idea! 💨🌊😰
At least it was a very productive day and heck, I stepped my a*** off! 👣🏃💪😅
I hope your day was less painful, yet just as productive! 😉
Thanks for reading, stay safe! 😊

Hi, sorry for spamming, but I would like to invite you to #POLIAC which means Polish Actifit League. Poland is only in name because we are open to other nationalities, what's more, in January we were so hospitable that we let the guy from the Czech Republic win :). From 1st February we changed the rules of competition, the number of registered steps is still important, but the competition is held in pairs. Currently, we are looking for more participants, cause more means much more fun. All competitions are friendly.
The first edition showed that steps are important but sometimes there is a big rule of luck i.e one time just 4K steps give victory, on the other hand, more than 25K will not grant victory.
Currently, we are 7, but the best would be 16 competitors, so everybody duel with everyone twice.
If you wish to see how the competition is going in February please see my last post.
We hope that you join us in March if co please respond yes to this comment.
Hi @browery,
I'm sorry but you obviously didn't read my post above, if you had you wouldn't have invited me to run with you. Thanks for the invitation but although walking is bearable, running is out of the question with my foot troubles. Maybe in the future, keep @actifit stepping! Lee :)
You right, I just seen big steps number 😏. I'm sorry about that, however I'd like explain the rules of league.
We don't push anyone to run, everyone is doing well what they did before, some are running, other are walking (as I do), cycling. That means every activity that you normally do to count steps on app.
On begin I will draw pairs for duel, some users are strong others are weak, but it doesn't matter. We don't know others plans for a day, the weather conditions etc that makes this competition unpredictable. Last month we had guy who won with 4K steps because his opponent spent whole day playing games, and he didn't make a report.
I checked your profile and I see that you report irregularly what matters in case of league. I hope 🍀 some day your problems with foot gone away and you'll be able to join us. Good luck 🍀 be strong.
Ok well then maybe in the future I'll join you when my foot is better! The 17,555 @actifit steps was a one off! I don't even get to 5,000 steps most days! lol
By the way, you don't mention what the prize is! lol
Thanks for your kind wishes, stay safe! :)
Shhhh, there is any 😄
But I think about sharing some % of my fluid payloads.
Ah so there is no prize! LOL
OK sounds good! Very generous of you!
Speaking of generous, thanks for the friend boost! I've sent you an @actifit friend request! ;)
Have a good week! Lee :)
J amnvery sorry tonknow about your foot.
Hole the surgery went well and your will get relief soon.
We are living in digital world and yes the this land us in problem some time also like you had a card problem..
Dont forgte to repace it otherwise yiunwill get troubled again next time...
The activity score is impressive ...
Thank you @mk992039, I hope so too, although now we are going to change the approach with a daily abrasive therapy for one to three months; hopefully it will be better sooner rather than later! ;)
Funnily enough I had just changed the card for the same issue, what are the odds the new one would do that too! I should have bought a lottery ticket! lol
I'll definitely go back to the bus operators and see what they suggest this time, perhaps another new one, who knows! lol Besides they should refund me for the ticket that I shouldn't have paid for as I was covered by the previous ticket timewise. We'll see how this plays out....
Thanks I'm quite proud under the cirsumstances! lol
I enjoyed your comments, thanks for reading, take care! Lee :)
In India we pay cash only for Bus fare... for metro we have choices to pay in cash or pay with metro card...
Hope the new therapy will work and you will feel better....
Yeah things vary in different parts of the world, in Spain we can pay by cash or bus pass for the buses and don't have metros except in the major cities.
Thanks for your kind wishes, stay safe! :)
Wow! I hope the walking doesn't set your healing back much! Sounds like a crazy day, but with excellent @actifit step count of 17555, despite obviously being in pain! Take care of that foot and take it easy for a day or however long you need for it to heal, my friend! 💜
Hey @elizabethbit, yeah I hope so too! lol Thanks, I don't think I'll be hitting that mark for a while at least! Rest and hopefully, healing are in order. I hope all is good in your neck of the woods! Take care of yourself and your best friend, my friend! 💜
Hey @griega! Yes, please take care of your feet! We tend to need to walk on them (yes, pun intended) and it's no fun when they are not up to the task. Enjoy your weekend; I hope the weather is beautiful and you can sit somewhere and enjoy the sun! Take care my friend!💜🤗
Thanks sweetie, have an awesome weekend! 💜🤗
You too, Lee!❤️🤗
Have an awesome week, my friend! ❤️🤗
You as well!🌻🤗
❤️🤗
We try, @griega, to get out even in the not so pretty days; I do draw the line at out and out downpours, though. Thanks for commenting and have a great week! 💜
You and @silvertop are definitely enthusiastic actifiters!
I agree, I try to avoid going out if it's absolutely pouring down unless of course little one needs it and the rain doesn't hold up!
Have the best week, sweetie! 💜
Thank you, Lee! You as well!💜
We're never ending! LOL
💜
Nice stepping Lee! You go girl!!! 🙌
So hey! I'm back here because I wanted to tell you about one more thing... Might as well now that I'm on a roll right! 😆
Over the last 2+ years I have been hosting something called the #AutomaticWin Initiative and more recently I have also launched the #Win Initiative! Your already doing most of what it takes to qualify for a little boost to your @Actifit reports!
Get 10,000 Steps!
If you reach 10,000 steps before 10am that qualifies you for an #AutomaticWin! Just screen capture the @Actifit dApp when you reach that mile stone as proof and attach it as an image to your report along with the #AutomaticWin hashtag!
If you reach 10,000 steps before 10pm that qualifies you for a #Win! Just screen capture the @Actifit dApp when you reach that mile stone as proof and attach it as an image to your report along with the #Win hashtag!
I come along later during the week and manually curate the qualifying posts with an upvote from the @AdventureReady account and also either the #AutomaticWin or #Win badge! Good quality reports also have a chance to be re-blogged.
So there you have it! Consider this an official invite Lee! 😁
@wil.metcalfe
GO GO GO! LOL
WOW You ARE on a roll! 3rd message today! 😁
That IS interesting, thanks for the invitation; I'll have to remember that for when I manage to make more than 10,000 steps from now on!
Catch you on the flipside! ;)
Hahaha! Yeah! I sure am on a roll!
Hope I see you on the down low soon! I’ll be checking the #AutomaticWin & #Win hashtags tomorrow! Going to award badges and reward upvotes! My favourite thing to do! 😌
LOL
You will be surprised to see me there then! I'm surprised myself! lol
Good on ya! 💜
Hi-dee-hey Lee! Just a quick check in! You did surprise me with your recent go at getting a #Win. I'm so sorry that I had to call it on account of the 2 min. delay though. 😣
It's so hard when it comes down to the wire like this... If I was implementing the #AutomaticWin and #Win Initiatives automatically with code then the software would be able to differentiate.
Unfortunately (and fortunately for that matter!) I have to stick to a steadfast set of protocols to keep things clear... That being the 10,000 step goal within the 10am or 10pm time limits.
The hard part is when someone clearly got enough steps... But the screen capture proof is outside of those time parameters. If I made an allowance, even once, I would have to do this over and over again with everybody.
Not only would this make the #AutomaticWin and #Win accomplishments difficult to manage... It could also erode the integrity of the challenge by making it so that I was judge and jury attempting to divvy our badges and award rewards based on changing requirements. Yikes! As you can see... That's a slippery slope to be traversing...
I'm sooooorrryyy Lee! Please try again! I know you got it in you! 😁
I hope I made you feel even a bit better about it as I know that you did extra (especially factoring in your mobility difficulty! ouch! 😰) to make the #Win attempt.
Keep on stepping in the free world girl!
-Wil
Hiya Wil, good to see you!
Thanks for your visit and the lengthy explanation. Don't worry I totally understand that you had no choice and that if you had done it for me, you would have had to do it for everybody and it would be chaos!
Don't fret though, surprise surprise, I'm pretty sure yesterdays post qualifies for the #win! Check it out when you can!
Turns out I did have it in me! 😁
Stay awesome and take care, Lee :)
