_{(Due to the circumstances, I have decided against sharing a photo today and instead opted for a screenshot from the Garmin app that is, at first glance, unspectacular. The screenshot shows German language. It means "Longest target winning streak" and "Current target winning streak".)}

Hi Actifitters,

for me, however, the screenshot is anything but unspectacular. It shows a major goal that I absolutely wanted to achieve.

For the past 365 days, a full year, I have reached my personal step goal every single day.

I could have actually reached this goal much earlier, but due to a decision that, in hindsight, was very stupid, I didn't take my steps on January 5, 2025. But who knows how stupid that decision really was. Perhaps it was even one of the reasons why I've continued with such discipline ever since.

I'm definitely curious to see how long I can maintain this streak. Since January 1st of this year, I've increased my step goal from 13,500 to 15,000 to make the challenge a little more interesting.

Unfortunately, the Actifit app again under-recorded about 5,000 steps yesterday. Oh well, I've come to terms with it. The data recorded by my Garmin devices is the only thing that matters to me anyway.

Today I was actually planning to hop on my bike again, but now I'm not so sure, since a friend spontaneously asked if we could go for a walk. I agreed, and so I'm soon out into the cold. We had lows of -13 degrees Celsius last night, and it's still very cold. Luckily, the sun is out to make things a little more comfortable, if you can even call it comfortable in these temperatures.

Depending on how far we end up walking, I'll decide whether to go for an additional bike session.
