And Miles to Go Before I Sleep...

I feel great! I did one of my favorite things today - I had plans to meet a friend at the E Street movie theater, and I decided to walk there. From my apartment, Mapquest estimates it's 3 miles, and it's a 60-minute walk from door to door. I fired up the iPod and had a grand old time. It was actually a really nice day out, and all the walking kept me pretty warm.

60 minutes brisk walking = 4 Activity Points! Hooray!

And I am ready to make a bold statement.... Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" is absolutely the best walking song ever. Seriously, the beat of that song is perfectly timed to my stride, and you just can't help but smile and walk with a little attitude.

Wow, three miles is excellent. Go go go!

GOD it's only 4 activity points?? That sucks...

But good job! :)

Yeah, it does seem like that much exercise would be worth more points - but I take it where I can get it! And an hour of walking outside is so much more enjoyable than the gym....

Woo hoo - well done, you! I can totally understand the Billie Jean thing - I pick albums to work out to specifically because of beat/cadence/whatever you call it. For running, and even really fast walking, it's the Foo Fighters for me! (Just broke out their new album on the treadmill last night, in fact.)
