[Gary Wunder]

Like those of you who have already posted, I had a wonderful time on Sunday
by helping the Delta Gamma Foundation in what I understand to be their
largest fundraiser of the year. On days when you do a walk like this, it is
easy to meet a step goal such as the one I have, which happens to be 10,000
steps a day. Now I see that my goal, no matter how hard I find to make it
some days, is far surpassed by many in our group. The question I would like
to explore is how you do it? I have a job that lets me work at home, so I
have a lot more freedom to take the time I need for exercise and other
things, but most of my job really requires that I sit at a computer, read
mail, and respond to it, and write , write, write. Sometimes I try to be
creative and read materials I am reviewing on a portable device, but there
is only so much I can do to keep on moving. How do those of you who work in
more structured environments managed to get the number of steps you get? Are
you walking in place as I sometimes do? Are you walking outside, as I
sometimes do? Do you pace around parts of your office space, as I sometimes
do?

 

I'd love suggestions for how to get my step count up without seeing a
commensurate reduction in my salary. I welcome and encourage your thoughts.
Please respond on list, even if you think my 10,000 step count is rather
wimpy.
