My Creatively Random Life

Last month my boss and I were talking about my Fitbit and how I like it and doing weekly challenges and that sort of thing and he told me about a friend of his who is a very busy guy and completed a million steps in a month challenge. I thought that was a fantastic idea and of course immediately wanted to try it.  My boss suggested that I do it in a month with 31 days so that I have a little extra time to break it down over so I decided to give it a go for July. A million steps in 31 days works out to around 32,259 steps a day well over double what I average on most days now but about what I hit on a really good day. I had a problem with my Fitbit battery earlier this week so I am just hoping that it keeps up through this challenge. I will try to post my daily totals here on the blog to keep track and keep accountable. Wish me luck.

This style of writing has never been one of my favorites to read, all that jumping about from one point of view to another tends to make for a choppy story.  And in this case a confusing one, which I think may have been what Faulkner was going for because the situation is one where everything would be in turmoil but hey I am not an expert. It is a very well told story and it has some very heart touching moments in it.
