I was going to write about walking to work. However, as I live in Deal, I feel that it is a little too far to walk to Canterbury. So I instead take the bus!<\/p>\n
Now does this come under the heading of ‘Walk To Work’? Well, from where I live, it’s a 15 minute walk to the bus stop. This helps me to get my metabolism going first thing and as I do it at a fast pace, it gets the calorie burning activated.<\/p>\n
This equates to adding 2.5 hours, 3.75 miles a week to my activity list. This is enough, from rough calculating, to burn through the calories I take in from eating a couple of doughnuts in the week! So if you like to indulge occasionally in a custard doughnut like I do, then this is one way of making sure that it doesn’t remain part of you for a long time.<\/p>\n
Also by walking and taking the bus, I am able to listen to\u00a0motivational and self-development podcasts and MP3s, again adding to my wellbeing at the start and end of the working day. Something that can’t be done effectively in a car I feel.<\/p>\n
Over the weeks of doing this, I have found that I am walking further, learning more, developing myself beyond what I thought I could, and enjoying life. OK, there is more to my wellbeing than just Walking to Work, but the sum of small things equals massive action and development for one’s body\u00a0and mind.<\/p>\n
Have a fantastic week everyone.<\/p>\n
