It didn't take long for the 2014 Year to Date stats to disappear. I'm glad I logged my last few miles last night before the clock struck 2015 and saw my final numbers for the year.

Anyway, I am pleased that I walked 2560 miles in 2014 which is an increase by 960 miles from 2013.

I started 2014 on The Long Trail, finished that and began the PCT. I jumped off this tremendously long trail when the Arizona Trail was listed and completed this new trail. Back on the PCT for a very short time and the Scottish Highlands Way was listed on W4F. So I jumped off the PCT again and finished the awesome Scottish Highlands Way. Once again on the PCT I crossed over the half-way point on December 30th.

I need to have goals on my hikes. My goal on the PCT was to pass a specific runner. I did once, before jumping off for the other trails. Now she is a few hundred miles in front of me again so I have my work cut out for me in 2015.

I'm interested in reading how others progressed on W4F in 2014.

Happy New Year all and keep walking.

Hmm.... I'll have to look into that. I thought it would display the cumulative year-to-date stats for whatever day you were looking at like it does for the week or month. Seems logical to have it set up that way, at least. But I might not get a chance to look into it until later this afternoon.

Oooohhh..... You know, off the top of my head, I bet I know exactly what the bug is. Originally I set it up to only display stats as of "today's" date--whatever that was--so stats in January were pretty useless. (The numbers were identical to the month's stats.) I bet I forgot to check whether they're looking at January of "this year". Because it's January, it's just not displaying any numbers at all.

But I can't fix that at the moment.... Later this afternoon/evening I'll look into it, though. (Maybe later this morning, but no promises!)

you read mine on Facebutt.

ok, for the others, i made my goal of walking an average of 10K a day, and to walk Every. Single. Day of 2014.

Goals for 2015: average 12K steps a day, and walk Every. Single. Day.

do you notice a trend?? ;-)

Alrighty then, I did get a chance this morning to fix the year-end stats problem, and it was exactly what I thought it was. =)

So I managed to score 7,402,102 steps for the year, which is an increase of about 282,000 steps. Not that much, really. Less than a thousand extra steps per day.

Speaking of which, I averaged 20,280 steps/day in 2014. I broke 20K! =)

However, I broke my streak of about 500 days in a row of at least 10K steps per day--a sad day, indeed. There was one day last year when I got 9,500 or so steps. I barely missed it! *slapping self*

I think I can get even more steps in this next year, though. I've got some work to do! =) Ten million or bust!

Thanks for fixing that Ryan. Now I have a permanent record of my 2014 stats. Good luck on your goals for 2015 hope they include adding another trail or two to W4F.

Well, rats, I'm not really sure where to find my 2013 and 2014 totals!

But I do know that my goals is to get back into some competitive walking. I had a perfect balance with Aiphid (competitive enough to push me, but not so much I gave up), but he slacked off on the last trail and I attempted to compete with Bubs and BB Stacker. Was that ever a mistake -- I just ate a lot of dirt and gave up.

So I tried Aiphid again on the new trail I'm on but I'm barely moving with the holidays and traveling on vacation and he can't keep up with this old woman. Pathetic, really. So unless he decides to get off the video game couch, I'll have to figure out something new for 2015...

Thanks.
It seems I did do better in 2014 than 2013 but not by much.
