Step Count

Why 10K-A-Day ?

Multiple studies confirm even modest increases in step counts can improve health, with benefits peaking when people walk between 9000 and 10,000 steps a day:

  • Stronger heart and lungs
  • Healthier weight
  • Decreased risk of diabetes and some cancers
  • More energy
  • Better sleep
  • Stronger bones
  • Clearer thinking and more creativity
  • Better balance
  • Longer life.


A program with 10,000 steps a day as a core strategy may be the most cost-effective way to reduce health risks and improve overall well-being.

More Fun Than Should be Allowed at Work

This international walking tour takes participants to some of the world’s most fascinating cities, including New York, Berlin, Auckland, Cairo, Buenos Aires, Istanbul, and more. As they strive for 10,000 daily steps, visiting exciting attractions each day — from ancient fortresses to seaside parks — participants build confidence in their ability and momentum toward their health goals.

The challenge has shown me that I can do anything if I put my mind to it.

I love this program! This was the first time I made it up the big hill by my house without stopping… the equivalent of walking up 
70 stories!!!

Within a few days, I walked not to reach the goal but because I started to see the benefits of committed walking... walking is now an integral part of my day.
