My Garmin 235 gives me all sorts of information whether I am running or not. I can see my heart rate, sleep quality and even steps. The step count includes running, too. I tend to average around 13,000 steps per day and only rarely dip below 10,000. Experts seem to agree that adults should aim for a minimum of 10,000 (approximately 5 miles) per day for good health. Last Saturday, I had run 7 miles in the morning...my longest continuous run in months. By nightfall, I had racked up over 24,000 steps. Doing what??? Dancing up a storm at a Kid Rock concert! My husband is a big fan, so we've seen Kid Rock perform three different times. This was a smaller venue at Grand Casino Hinkley, and all seats were good ones. We took our daughter along and loved the performance. Sometimes watching my husband watch the concert is equally entertaining. Runners who listen to music while running may find some good pump-up songs on Kid Rock albums. There are also a lot of songs with a solid count of F-bombs. I have seen research that cussing during exercise can improve performance, so maybe a few blue words via earbuds is ok as long as you aren't singing along out loud. Careful for little ears that repeat everything they hear!
