The number of steps from Akerman Hall to the doorstep of my Apartment building. Why’s it important? According to Paul McKenna, the average in shape person walks about 6,000 steps a day. The typical over weight person walks about 2,000 less than that. Now, I’m not claiming to be obese, but I’ve put on a few more pounds over the years than I would have liked. I’ve come a long way since the lean 120 lbs I was during my year of High School Wrestling. Just by making up those 2,000 steps, and making no other changes to my day to day routine, I should start to feel a difference in my clothes in a couple weeks.

Thats just walking to and from campus each day, rather than taking the bus.
