Gaming the system

I 'm doing the 125k step challenge and every time I get near the first place contender Jill Hamilton , she jumps 50-60 k steps ahead of me each day. There are no Olympic athletes doing 60k steps every day. Someone is gaming the system and it sucks. I will post this on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

    I don't know, I didn't spot obvious cheating yet in my challenges.

    If you're doing 125k challenge, then this shouldn't be 50k steps a day. If someone starts making 50k a day, then he will be moved to higher challenge next time (there is limit, so this could take few challenges to change group).

    50-60k a day would give 350-420k a week, so that someone will be in higher group soon.

    I knew someone at my work who was wearing his wife's watch while she was sleeping. They worked different shifts, so the watch was constantly recording steps. "Gaming the system" for insurance purposes.
