Tobin Step Counters
We've come a long way in our fitness challenge! I'd say we're taking an excellent "step" in the right direction! HERE you will find the step counting challenge page. I am recording the steps that classes take together during PE class, but the rest is up to you at home! Individual students may record their steps taken at home using the Step Counting Google form, found HERE.
Currently, with all classes combined at Tobin, we are at 2,476,226 steps!! This is about equal to ~1157.87 miles!! What a feet! (feat ;)
More updates to come at the end of this month!! Keep up the amazing work!
