I have walked less in 2020
It seemed as if I could summarise my 2020 review in. "we walked a lot". So it might seem surprising, but I have walked less in 2020. I've tried to catch up a bit in the last months to reach at least 9550 steps per day on average but previous year I had 10100 steps per day.
As I stated last year already : vacation is good for me. Clear peaks last year were in May and June when we spent our vacation in Canada. Also this year the vacation weeks in, April, August and November and December had a clear effect. My busiest stress months at work: June, July, September and October this year were clearly less mobile thanks to the many hours behind my desk.
So I might have had just as many vacation days but the little city trips away that do not require extra vacation days but boost the average. Those little trips were impossible due to the pandemic in 2020. We also spent part of our vacations in the east of Belgium. While at home we made a lot of walks with the children, but very often it was a combination of a lazy day and then 1 walk to get some movement and fresh air. That's quite different from exploring all day on vacation or during a city trip.
But the good news is that I seemed to be able to boost the average the last months. I tried to pick up Jan's example of having walking meetings or walking breaks outside. I'll try to continue that this year.
