So how far did you walk at Oshkosh?
This was my first trip to Oshkosh, so after walking a LONG way Sunday morning, I decided to grab a smart phone and turn on the pedometer. Sunday afternoon I walked 12.5 miles, 16.5 miles on Monday, and a whopping 19 miles on Tuesday. That did not include walking to the showers, bathrooms, and around the campsite. So easy to say I made more than 50 miles in three days. Needless to say, I slept very well every night. I read on the suggested items list that headphones or earbuds were nice to mute the sounds around the campsite, but I was unconscious and did not need any. 
Had a wonderful time!

Ditto plus two morning I got in a run, the first one for 1 hr and 40 minutes and the second run for 45 minutes. I had no problems sleeping but I am a little sore and I have a blister on one toe

Steps
I don't know mileage but my phone recorded 50,000 steps in three days. I'm tired.

We've been staying in the dorms for about the last five years, but decided to camp with plane this year. Wx cooperated with nice days and cool nights. Would have been great except for the loud music coming from nearby HBC that lasted well into the night. What in the world was that?!?! And I wore ear plugs too!!!

Early it was some sort of concert series across the highway. Then it was/is the nightly SOS Brother's live entertainment......

Only did Saturday - Tuesday (departed Wednesday), but racked up 44.57 miles. In an interesting tech fail, the Fitbit records all the turbulence bumps - so I racked up a good 13,000 steps due to bumps on the trip out from Seattle. And there was a period where they were registered as at least moderate!

We were 12-14 miles Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, with slightly lower totals on Saturday and Wednesday, and not much walking at all this morning. Probably a total of 50 miles or so.

I walked an estimated 12 to 15 miles each day. My feet are still aching but fortunately have little to no blisters this year thanks to buying a new pair of good walking shoes and a package of extra thick socks especially for Oshkosh this year.
