Data Entry Essentials

The [WalkSmart] Daily Emails are a great way to help you remember to enter your pedometer data. They are also a good prompt to remind you to leave the car behind or jump off PT, put on your pedometer and walk to work!

If you enter data via email, here are some handy hints:

1. Daily emails are most useful for people who have (or are aiming for) regular walking habits ie. walk every day, even though the amount of walking may vary between days.
2. You can select the days you wish to receive emails by logging into WalkSmart, going to Edit my profile and scrolling down to Pedometer Options. You will then need to tick the appropriate boxes.
3. To record your steps for the day, reply to the automated [WalkSmart] Daily Email and make sure that in the reply, your total number of steps appears like this: steps: [7654]
4. Don't forget to reset your pedometer after recording your steps.
5. If you want to enter data for a day but did not receive an email on that day, simply login to www.walksmart.net You can enter your steps for the current day or select a different day. If you make a mistake, you can also alter or delete a previous day's data.
