"I recently found out about the WOMAN Activity Tracker and so far I've been able to meet my goals. I am disabled and cannot walk very well although I know walking helps me. That is why I decided to do this. I would encourage anyone out there who is also disabled to find some sort of activity they are able to do and do it whole heartily. I have seen results in just the short time I've been doing this. I have been wearing a pedometer to keep track of my steps. Doing so has got me up and moving more. I enjoy the challenge."

"What a way to motivate women! It really is important to be healthy. Being a nurse, I need to follow the advice I give my patients. Having my daughter participate with me is really setting an example for healthy living. It is also very nice to have her by my side!"

Welcome to the WOMAN Activity Tracker!

The WOMAN Activity Tracker is a program designed to help you be physically active all year long! WOMAN stands for Women and girls Out Moving Across the Nation. Using the WOMAN Activity Tracker web site, you can set personal goals and log your daily activity as you move along one of six virtual routes across the United States. You can take part in the program both as an individual and as part of a team.

The WOMAN Activity Tracker is a free program of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office on Women's Health. The program encourages women and girls to walk 10,000 steps or get 30 minutes of moderate physical activity every day over a 44-week period. All women and girls (ages 9 and up) are welcome to take part in the program. If you took part in the 2008 WOMAN Challenge, you can use your log-in information from the WOMAN Challenge to log into the WOMAN Activity Tracker!

Is WOMAN Activity Tracker the same as the WOMAN Challenge?

No, the WOMAN Challenge is an 8-week, annual program that begins on Mother's Day and also kicks off National Women's Health Week. This year, the WOMAN Challenge ends on July 5, 2008. The WOMAN Activity Tracker is a 44-week program that allows women and girls to keep track of their daily activities throughout the rest of the year. This year, the WOMAN Activity Tracker starts on July 6, 2008. Both the WOMAN Challenge and the WOMAN Activity Tracker are programs that promote daily physical activity.
