If you read it aloud it doesn’t sound right, but from a mathematical perspective it’s saying the number of steps per day should be less than 500, which I think is the intention of the writer, no?

Yes that’s the intention but they got the order wrong, it would make more sense if it was written as number of steps < 500

  Unusual? Sure. Mathematically? Right.
