Walking Battler

Let’s continue with the topic of graduation gifts. Here’s another I received, a Striiv:

This nifty little device is a pedometer with all sorts of additional features. In addition to keeping track of steps, stairs, calories and ‘energy’ the Striiv incentivizes the user with Trophies!

So for trophy junkies like me, that’s a win right there. The system has extensive stat tracking as well (which I love) and can challenge the user to do more exercise than they usually would:

The currency earned is used in a little fantasy simulation game called Myland. It’s purely a distraction, but not bad for a pedometer.

Many of you know how much I loved the DS pedometer software i used to use. This guy is all that and much more, plus it’s all there in my pocket. I’m loving it so far 🙂
