40 minutes

I have successfully taken 40 minutes of my lunch every day this week to walk along the lake.  It may not seem like much, but I have walked over 10 miles this week.  One day earlier in the month I wore my watch on the walk, so I know how far out 1 mile is.  I make it past that point every day and walk back.  I also throw in 60-100 lunges along the way.
I am up to walking the lake a total of 10 times during lunch in May.  That is 20 additional miles I have done this month.  Think about it, 1 mile is approximately 100 calories.  That is 2,000 calories I have burned just walking along the lake.  More importantly it is a brain break.  I feel so much better the second half of the day.
See how long I can keep this up in the Texas heat!
