    I didn't do ANYTHING yesterday! So lazy! This morning I ran for 37 minutes on the treadmill. I'm going to double up on jacks and squats since I missed them yesterday.

    Well this is all working days (Friday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday) 15 min walk to station and 15 min walk back home so 120 in total. But I do not really feel like I am working out though. Maybe I ought to try the squat thingy's

    You could turn that walk into a run, also.
