Tap-Tap-Tap....Is this thing working??

Ok, so at work we are fundraising for Pediatric Cancer Foundation and planning on a 5K walk in October. I joined, figured I could be motivated to get in a little better shape. The boss, wanting to promote wellness, buys the staff pedometers. No problem I think, right? I am on my feet all day, I have 2 kids I chase around, walks to the park, bike rides, etc. THEY suggest 10,000 steps a day, I figure a little extra walking should be no problem to hit those steps.
So I had the darn thing on, had to calibrate it to my stride....
Today's total: 4516 AND we walk to a friends for a birthday party AND went on a bike ride...
I am in BIG trouble...

Hmmm...maybe it's not working. I should get one of those. I've been walking everywhere lately - but what I thought was a really long walk turned out to be just about a mile.
