Walking hi tech style

I thought you all would find this interesting. this person has built a desk to fit on the treadmill and is "walking across American" while he works. Check it out at:

I walked 1.7 miles on the treadmill today - I'm a little frustrated because it is so hot here and I am using the treadmill inside. I think I enjoy walking outside more! I need to get my ticker to readjust also as I thought I might want to do minutes, but I like the mileage better.

You walkers are really inspiring me!

Thanks for the interesting site - and I thought I was overboard with being at work.

I know what you mean about the treadmill - it is hot and also boring.

It might be OK for an Ohio winter to walk at a treadmill desk, but not for spring, summer or fall. I think that guy needs to get out more!

Hi,

I'm the guy who built the Treadmill Desk. I do get out a lot. I live in Boulder Colorado and I run 3x a week in open space. I also swim 3x a week in something called Master's Swimming (which during the summer is outside). My Treadmill Desk is just for the time when I'm working at my desk.

Nice site. Keep Going!!
