I have started walking a lot during the day. I previously
always walked at least an extra 2 miles a day in short walks throughout the
day. I like walking. I enjoy the fresh air and with my job, I am stuck at a
desk for 8-10 hours a day. Sometimes, I need to get up and stretch my legs.
I always walk for about 15 minutes from the bus stop to my
office and from my office back to the bus stop. There is a closer bus stop I could
take, but it doesn’t same that much time for me. I also take a 10 minute walk mid morning to
stretch my legs after sitting at my desk for a few hours.
Then in the early afternoon my friend and I head out on our
daily 45 minute walk to get some exercise during the day. Finally, I have been
getting off at the first bus stop in the city and walking about 30 minutes on
my way home. I calculated, rather than waiting for my particular bus, doing it his
way, takes about 15 minutes longer than taking a bus.
All this walking adds up. I feel great, sometimes, I listen to
music, other times, I just think. This
is helping to supplement my running miles as well.
How much do you walk?
