Resolution criteria

This market will resolve to "Yes" if I average 8,500 or more steps per day during June 2025. The average will be according to my Apple Health app.

If the average is 8,500 steps or more, the market resolves to "Yes"; otherwise, it resolves to "No".

Background

The average American adult takes approximately 5,117 steps per day. (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) Achieving an average of 8,500 steps per day would place me in the "somewhat active" category. Over the last 12 months, I have averaged 6,401 steps per day.

Considerations

To reach an average of 8,500 steps per day in June 2025, I would need to accumulate a total of 255,000 steps over the 30 days of the month. This goal may require incorporating additional physical activities into my daily routine, such as going on runs or evening walks.

I may participate in this market but only buy the Yes option. I will provide updates on my step count no less frequently than once every five days.
