Hit 50,000 steps on my Fitbit last Saturday just walking around a massive flea market outside Houston

Ngl, I was just trying to find a cheap set of wrenches and ended up circling the whole place twice for 8 hours straight, has anyone else lost track of time at one of those giant outdoor flea markets?

I hit 42,000 steps at the Canton First Monday Trade Days in Texas a couple years back. My trick now is I wear a cheap pedometer and set a stopwatch on my phone to remind me every hour to check the time. Those places are like a maze - you go in for one thing and come out at sunset with your feet screaming but a trunk full of stuff you didn't know you needed.

Man, 50k is no joke. My feet would file a formal complaint and quit on me after like hour four. The last big flea I went to in San Antonio south of town, I walked so much I literally forgot what car I parked in. Found it two rows over crying because my legs had turned to jello. These places should hand out little compasses or something. Or just a map with a big red arrow pointing back to the exit.
