keep walking !
Wednesday, July 05, 2006
Do we walk?? What a question!! We walk long distances everyday. Inside the office - to the cafeteria, to the restroom. Well that’s almost it. It’s sad to say that the many in the breed of software engineers including me do lack exercise.
I have a small claim to make. I do a bit of walking compared to many of my friends. That may not add to my health though. At least I’m putting in some effort. There was a comment in some article about cultivating the habit of walking. If it has to be considered as a way of exercise, then it has to be done with some speed. This is not the casual walk.
Being inspired by this, I made some great resolutions to walk everyday in the morning by getting up early. But, could not adhere to that policy as I felt sleeping for more time in the morning gives more satisfactionJ. I make it a point to get down from the bus not at the exact bus stop of mine. Somewhere, a bit far, at least a kilometer away, I get down. From there, I think about something and walk towards home. Should say that I get ideas for most of the blogs from that inspiring walk!
We make fun of a friend of mine in this regard. His house being near the main road, it’s pretty easy to get a rickshaw. So his impeccable style is to just shout for an auto and then get into it!!!
