Hit 500 miles of walking on the West Side this year without even noticing

I just added up my dog walks from my phone since January and I'm somehow at 501 miles, mostly just doing loops around Edgewater and the Metroparks. Has anyone else checked their total and been surprised by how much ground you cover just living around here?

I mean 501 miles of dog walks is honestly kind of impressive even if you didn't mean to do it, that's basically walking from here to Pittsburgh. idk about you but my phone tracking my steps feels like it's judging me more than motivating me at this point. Maybe it's just me but I feel like if I accidentally walked that far I'd at least want a commemorative t-shirt or something.

A commemorative t-shirt is the least they could do for 500 miles of walking. That dog better appreciate all that effort, mine would just look at me like I owed it more treats. Phone step trackers really do have that judging vibe, constantly telling you to close rings or hit goals. It's like having a tiny personal trainer in your pocket that never takes a day off. Still, accidentally hitting 500 miles is wild, most people can't do that on purpose.
