We celebrated Pi Day (3/14) at work and I baked some mini Pecan Pies for the occasion. We also indulged in Pizza pies, quiche, fruit and custard pies. It was quite a spread.Because of all the pie, I walked home from work to try to burn off at least some of the calories. I managed nearly 8000 steps. Needless to say that wasn’t enough to burn off the pie, but its progress. This report was published via Actifit app (Android). Check out the original version here on actifit.io15/03/20257734Walking

It feels great to hit 10,000 steps finally! This time is was the result of walking across town to get home from a dentist appointment. Thankfully the weather was perfect for the 2.5 to 3 mile walk.I got a lot of looks from people and I realized it’s because I was walking by the White House with a t-shirt that says:

Today I managed to get in a walk during my lunch break and walked home. I was hoping that the combination of those two activities would get me across the 10,000 step threshold, but they didn’t. For some reason it seems like 10,000 steps is enormously high these days. I remember when I was doing twice that several years ago. But alas, now I have an office job and sit on my ass all day! Perhaps I should look into one of those treadmill desks or desk cycling setups. This report was published via Actifit app (Android).

While the weather is in that perfect range of 60-70 degrees, I’m taking advantage and going outside for walks during my lunch break. It turns out I can make a half lap around the national mall in my 30 minute break.What I haven’t figured out yet is what I’ll do when the summer arrives and we have 80+ degree and humid weather. The last building I worked in had a very long main floor hallway that we would use as a walking track, but I have no such luck at my current job.

I met some colleagues for a delicious dinner and drinks after work and decided I should walk the 2-ish miles home to burn off those calories.First, check out the food and drinks.The Enchiladas de Mole Negro were amazing and filled with slow roasted brisket! I also got a kick out of the glass that my second drink of the evening came in. I’m on the hunt for those pineapple glasses to add to my own glassware at home.

Today I decided to go for a 30 minute walk at lunch and walked home from work as well. That resulted in almost 9000 steps!The weather was perfect for the hike up the hill and I was actually moving faster than traffic was! Now that nearly everyone is reporting to the office in-person, the DC roads are a constant mess of bumper to bumper traffic. It makes me glad that I don’t own a car and can walk to and from work!
