    I just took my bike to the bike shop for a tune-up. The 16-year old explained to me that it was a 20-year-old bike and that I might consider buying a new one. Ahh, the joys of aging in front on the young. My goal is to ride my bike to work a few times a week. I think it is about 7 miles to my office.

    We will see how it goes...

    How far is it, and how long did it take? Challenge yourself to try and beat your time when you next walk to work!

    I sort of walk to work - I have to get the train most of the way, as it's nearly 40 miles LOL. It's two miles walking from the station to my office. I always used to get the underground (I work in London, UK) but now I walk most days. I feel so much better for it.

    It's not far at all, probably less than a mile! Took me 11 minutes. But it forced me to walk up and back to the post office at lunch (another 20 minutes) then I'll have to walk home. So, I added 40 minutes of walking to my day besides my Shred workout. Going to try for all week!! Thanks for the encourgagement!!
