GeoPalz Activity Tracker Now Available in More Than 250 Retailers Nationwide

GeoPalz (www.geopalz.com), the first activity tracker and online game to promote fitness for children, is now available for purchase at more than 250 retailers across the U.S.

A decorative pedometer and online game that records your child’s physical activity throughout the day, GeoPalz encourages kids to be active by tracking their steps online to win prizes and awards. The easy-to-use GeoPalz pedometer sits on your child’s belt or waistband, and comes in several kid-friendly designs.

Motivating kids everywhere to get active, current GeoPalz users recently achieved the major milestone of 25,000 total miles (approximately 65 million steps). This is the distance around the globe, and the data was taken from registered users who log the steps taken with their GeoPalz activity trackers.

“We are grateful for our many retail partners because it furthers our initiative of encouraging children across the nation to be more fit by having GeoPalz widely available for purchase,” said Rich Schmelzer, CEO of GeoPalz, LLC. “We’re thrilled to reach our first milestone of 25,000 miles so quickly and know that having these retailers in our corner will help us grow.”

With 25,000 miles passed, and more steps logged each day, GeoPalz looks to reach 250,000 miles – the distance to the moon – within its first year. GeoPalz activity trackers are available in more than 250 retailers nationwide and also on the GeoPalz web site. To get involved and start stepping, find a store near you or purchase online at www.geopalz.com/store.
