## What is One Million Steps?

One Million Steps is an affordable fitness fundraising challenge that anyone can take part in, from any location, without previous training and raise money for good causes

It’s a hundred-day journey with mindfulness, Pilates and strengthening exercises to get you feeling good and doing good.

Individuals walk a million steps in 100 days (500 miles) while fundraising for causes they care about.

Charities receive a branded charity page with integrated fundraising, and the opportunity to widen their pool of supporters and see 6 times the return of investment.

Businesses receive affordable tools and resources to support staff health and wellbeing while fulfilling their corporate social responsibility and giving back to the community.

Use the app to:
· wirelessly sync our pedometer with your mobile device
· or use Apple Health (HealthKit) with your favourite pedometer device
· track your progress and goals,
· compete in mini-challenges
· follow friends on leader boards
· and fundraise for good causes

Track Your Progress
· Steps – did you reach your daily goal?
· Total Active Time - try to reach 2 hours a day
· Active Mins – get those cardio minutes by walking a total of 45 mins a day at three miles per hour pace
· Active Hours - Stop just sitting around! Try to make 9 out of 12 hours your Active Hours.  How?  Do 300 steps in that hour or get a buzz reminder
· Step Average - Monitor your 7, 14, 30, 60 and 100-day step average to keep you on track – no more lying to yourself, it’s all there to see
· Distance – tell your friends how far you have walked or run
· Calories – With all that hard work, check to see how many calories you may have burnt

Mini-Challenges
Mini-Challenges are great for that extra boost or getting back on track.  We have six mini challenges to take and compete with friends.

24-hour Burst – Nothing says it better than an all-out push

Weekend Walkathon – Two-day challenge. Use the weekends to catch up on steps or just keep active on the quiet days

Work Week Wonder – Five-day challenge. Monday to Friday. Who’ll be champion at the end?

Full Week Monty – 7-day challenge Monday to Sunday to walk through the week

14 day Reset – Feel like a reboot? This two-week challenge is a great refresher.

30-day Rejuvenator – 30 days to get fighting fit again

Leader boards

When we take up something new, first we make a commitment, then we look for tools to help us with the challenge. 

But being humans, we love to do things together. So joining a group can really help us succeed

Follow your friends on leader boards and push yourself to be No.1

The team are great! The cause and idea to raise money for charity’s is amazing whilst supporting physical and mental wellbeing is a perfect combo!

### 5/5 — Amazing app that helps so many people!

*2022-07-22, version 2.0.3*

Mymillionsteps is a great app and organisation that helps charities and people from all over get the help and support they deserve. They work so hard and tirelessly and I am proud to have raised money with them and complete the challenge. I’d recommend this challenge and app to anybody. Everyone involved are lovely people especially the organisers/owners. :)

### 5/5 — Great cause and idea

*2022-07-21, version 2.0.3*

The app does its job and counts your steps. The cause is a fantastic one, the challenge helped me raise money for a charity close to my heart and stay fit (physically and mentally) during lockdowns.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2022-06-12, version 2.0.3*

I cannot register except for emails therefore cannot use the App, which means my junk folder will benefit more than me. On opening the App, it goes straight to log in but no option to register. Online, what you think is registering turns out to be permission for emails. So don't sign up!

### 5/5 — Brilliant companion to the One Million Steps Challenge!!!

*2021-06-03, version 1.3.10*

We as a company signed up for the One Million Steps challenge back in January and the app made it very easy to follow our progress on a day to day basis as well a track our colleagues and share our fundraising pages!

### 5/5 — Fantastic platform for fundraising!

*2020-10-22, version 1.3.10*

This app is superb - it does the job of syncing to my Apple Watch to track steps, keep me on track for the challenge, run my fundraising page, additional content to guide me and develop fitness! Amazing product, works perfectly!

### 5/5 — Fitness and Fundraising

*2020-09-11, version 1.3.10*
