Lunchtime Walking

So yesterday I decided that I better take advantage of the remaining warm weather and head outside to take a lunchtime stroll on the bike patch behind City Hall. It was about 65 degrees and sunny, so I grabbed my iPhone, cranked up some Dave Matthews Band (since I didn't have my headphones, I just let it play) and grabbed my phone to use as a stopwatch.

However, I didn't find a stopwatch function on my phone. Instead I found this program/application called "Eco Walk" which counted the number of steps I took as well as the amount of CO2 emissions I saved by walking instead of driving. Pretty cool! It also keeps a history of your walks so you can try to beat your previous "high score" each time you go for a walk! Here's just a little video from my walk yesterday:

Today I plan to get out and do some more walking for sure! Not only do I get to leave my desk/computer and stretch my legs, but I also get to enjoy the fresh, autumn air and hear the sounds of nature. Unfortunately, there's a hospital construction project going on nearby, so that sometimes drowns out the birds... What are some little ways that you burn calories throughout the day?
