National Public Health Week
Thank you for celebrating the 30th Anniversary of National Public Health Week!
We are already planning for next year’s celebration! Please check back in November for updates on National Public Health Week 2026.
No device? No problem! You can manually enter your steps or activity for each day via the Walker Tracker app or website. The Walker Tracker platform makes it easy to count the movement you do every day, whether it’s swimming, using a wheelchair or any number of Americans with Disabilities Act recommended activities. It’s just a few screens to make sure the Keep It Moving Challenge is accessible to everybody and every body!

Estimate your movement without a counting device
You can use an estimate of how far you move in miles (or fractions of a mile) and calculate the steps. If you don't know the exact distance, just use your best estimate. For example, at a pace of three miles an hour, people typically take 2,000 steps per mile. So a day's estimate could be:
Leisure steps:
15 minutes, walk the dog
10 minutes, walk on a daily commute
15 minutes, walk with a colleague at work
Total: 40 minutes or 2 miles
Exercise steps:
3 miles during a workout on the elliptical machine at the gym
Total for the day: 5 miles
Total steps: 5 x 2,000 = 10,000 steps
