This Bandai Pedometer is one of the coolest we've used, and a fun way to motivate yourself to take a walk. The pedometer comes in three flavors: "Starship Yamato," "Section Chief Kosaku," and "3000 Leagues in Search of Mother," all highly popular anime series in Japan.
In each version, an animated screen with characters from the series displays your progress towards your goal, and you can also set daily step objectives as well. As you walk toward your goal, you'll see a story unfold on the pedometer screen, and you can also follow your journey on the web, where a map of your progress and personalized health advice are waiting.
