100000 Steps In 24 Hours Challenge

Walking 50 Miles / 100,000 Steps In A Single Day - My Most Epic Challenge Yet! Ever since I began using a FitBit to track my steps, I always wondered how difficult it would be to walk 100,000 steps in a single day. For the last two years I have tried to get in at least 15,000 steps in every day. Many days I would be able to beat this mark, getting to the 20K, 25K, 30K, 35K and even the 40K marks. I knew this was going to be a difficult, but I felt I had conditioned my body to take up the 100,000 steps in a single day challenge. So I started to prepare myself mentally.

I rested the day before the challenge and began it promptly at midnight. That morning I had weighted in at 197.4 pounds. I found that I was able to walk about 6000 steps and hour, which is about a 3 mile per hour pace.

I walked around my division, which is about 5 miles round trip. Walking during the night was incredibly peaceful. There were no people out, just the sound of crickets chirping and frogs croaking. My division is around a golf course so I walked on the golf path for portions of the walk. This gave me a lot of time to think and refresh my mind.

With walking all through the night, right around breakfast time I had broken my previous one day walking record of just over 41,000 steps in a single day, and 40 minutes after that I had managed to walk over 26 miles, the distance of a full marathon.

At this point my body was tired. My feet were swollen, the shins just hurt, my lower back ached, my neck and shoulder there tight, but I wanted to try and get as much done in the cool of the day as I could.

Around lunch time I had cracked the 65,000 steps mark, and decided I needed to have a bit of a rest. So I went inside for a short bit. I started walking on the treadmill, but I really wanted to complete this challenge outside, so I took to the streets once again.

I pushed on despite the pain I was in. This was easily the most difficult challenge I have done to date from an exhaustion standpoint.I found myself taking a lot more breaks now, but I still pushed on to accomplish this challenge.

When I got to my house I was still a couple of miles away from hitting 100K steps, so I decided to make one more loop around my neighborhood. I hit my goal half way around but still had two make it back home. I needed up finishing the challenge with 105,453 steps.

I came home, took a shower and went to bed. The next morning I weighed in at 192 pounds, down 5.4 pounds from when I had started this challenge. I had walked 53.5 miles, the equivalence of 2 whole marathons.

This was an incredible challenge, but mentally and physically. I'm glad I was able to complete it, though I am not sure I will ever try it again!

I would not recommend this challenge to someone who is not already walking quite a bit. My feet and legs were already used to walking a lot, but it was incredibly difficult still. It would be very easy to get injured trying to complete this challenge, so I would recommend working yourself up to it if you want to give it a try.

I was able to get 100, 000 steps in one day all by myself, but I’ll never get to 100, 000 subscribers without you! Would you help make that possible? Just hit that Subscribe button if you haven’t done so already. Thanks for watching!

Simple Man,
I had it in my mind to do this challenge for the better part of a year. Yesterday, on September 3, 2022, I finally did it. I started at 1215 AM and finished at 1705. 16 hours and 50 minutes. It was an awesome accomplishment, finishing at 100, 148 on the day. Thanks for making the video. I watched it twice, especially when I hit 60k. That was the hardest part of the journey...it seemed that I just couldn't get out of the 60-70 k hole. When I hit 80, it was like finally seeing the light and it grew brighter with each step.

Good job man. No telling what you were thinking about through the walk. When I walk i think a lot, I'm happy to see the determination for something so simple yet so hard.

Just found your channel. I’ve just watched 4 or 5 of your different challenge videos and it’s great to see normal people trying them too. Keep up the good work, mate. From a new subscriber 👍

This is so incredible. I'm chucking because anybody watching you walk on the street has no idea you've already walked a marathon distance and are just casually strolling.

Absolutely brutal! The mind must have gone through countless ups and downs. It’s like living an entire year in a day.

Incredible achievement. 👏 I've been trying to up my game lately. Finally hit 42k yesterday in six hours. Much more difficult terrain & weather tho.

Im averaging 20K a day and this becomes my next challenge for me. I think I will set a date to attempt doing 100K and before that I will train first by gradually increasing my steps from 20K, 30K, 40K so on so on. Great job!
