Indeed, no such luck. I received this e-mail from them today:

Thank you very much for applying to join the Wave 105 Everyday Sport South Coast Challenge. We have been bowled over by your collective response. During the registration period (and indeed beyond) we were inundated with over 20,000 applications for the free pedometers a number in excess of twice our anticipated response. Subsequently we have had to prioritise those applications from within our transmission area. This has meant that regretably, although we sincerely thank you for your interest in the campaign, many of you, outside of our transmission area have not received a pedometer.

The virtual walk from Exmouth to Dover is now well underway. Wave 105 & Everyday Sport would like to keep track of everyones progress, so if you have been lucky enough to receive a free pedometer, could we please ask that you log your progress on a weekly basis on our South Coast Challenge Steps Calculator by clicking on
