This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Drumming sets off steps on my new watch. New goal is to drum marathon distance. (lemmy.world)

Don't be intimidated though. If you're not regularly exercising, start with a smaller goal And increase at a rate you're comfortable with. Walking is a great activity and is great for your body and easier on your knees than running.

The point is to do more than you are now.

What I appreciate about my Garmin is that it adjusts my step goals up and down to make them achievable. Miss my goal for the day? The next day is a few steps less. Hit my goal? The next is a few steps more. I get the satisfaction of reaching goals, but don't feel bad about myself if I miss.
