really enjoying walking at my desk

I have really enjoyed walking at my desk over the last 6 weeks or so. I rearranged my office a bit to put a TV in viewing range which has been really nice for Sunday and Monday night football. I also play computer games and its great to know while I play games and watch football I can get some exercise as well.

I have been evangelizing the treadmill desk idea to some other folks I work with. They also work from home so I know they spend a lot of time in front of a computer and not moving around much.

Also got an invite to by Brad to join http://officewalkers.ning.com . Thanks Brad for the invite!

fell off the pace a bit

I had lots of phone calls last week closing out a deal and it limited my walking. The treadmill makes a low humming sound and it interferes with my phone and the other folks on the call say its a bit loud. Something to think about for those looking at building a treadmill desk. Listen to the treadmill prior to buying and judge if it will be distracting to you or others while working.

75 mile mark

Hit the 75 mile mark today and have walked the equivalent calories of 3.75 lbs. Clothes are looser and feel less bloated. I'm a good tired at the end of the day. My work is better and I feel more energized while I'm doing it. The technical writing part of my job is really flowing. I'm able to concentrate where before when I was sitting I found myself distracted by everything. I think its the movement. Slow and steady, rhythmic, the low hum of the treadmill not sure which or if its all of them. I guess now if I doze or lose concentreation I'll fall off the treadmill. :) All I know it's working and I don't think I'll ever, if I have the option, sit at work again.
