Default Walk breaks for those working...

I just took a walk break at work for the first time in months! It felt so good Our office is right next to a river and it is so peaceful! In the warm months I go for up to an hour along the river, but this was my first time at it again, only walked 30 min and I can tell I am not in the shape I used to be

Anyone else like to sneak in a walk during your work day?

I work with my husband and we walk just about every day for lunch.
It's good for the body and the soul.

I work in special education and we don't really get a break, we have to eat lunch in the room with the kids, but they get a half hour "gym" so sometimes we will take them out to walk around. I don't get to really get my speed up, but getting some fresh air and getting out of the classroom is always nice!

I love going for walks behind my office on my lunch hour. Like Pinkberry I have an hour lunch and I live too far away from work to go home and there is a nice neighbourhood behind my office building which is great for walking in. If it would ever stop snowing here I could get out there!

I work at a hospital and so I go for a walk in the neighborhood around it during my breaks with my coffee Really perks me up and refreshes me, especially on a nice spring day!
