Best way to track steps on daily walk

It's interesting. I can walk for MILES. Five miles easily every day and 10 if I push it a little bit but walking up 4-5 flights of stairs tires me out. I guess stairs are a different kind of stamina.

Not sure where you live, but I live near New York City and took a tour of the old tenements on the Lower East Side. Back in the day, wealthier people lived on the ground floors and the poorer people lived on the 4th and 5th floors. Elevators changed all that.

You are right about climbing stairs vs walking. I know from experience that daily walks where there are hills and steep inclines give you a level of stamina that walking on flat surfaces does not. We are retired and live in the Rocky Mountains and climb hills 5 days a week and take the stairs instead of elevators when given the chance. R
