Toggle walk

So, here's the thing, since my kids came along I have become fairly sedentary. I just don't get out a lot, no more soccer or rollerblading or just taking a stroll. A lot of it is time, a lot of it is WoW. Either way, I've unsurprisingly put on a few pounds over the last five years and I'm increasingly bothered by it.

But what to do?

No time for sports, or the gym, and I really don't want to give up my hobbies.

Maybe I can try this



Turns out that I can walk and play WoW at the same time (just don't add gum). In fact, I did so last night. I spent an hour strolling along at a fair but not unpleasant clip while questing on my druid out around Mo'Aki Harbor.

So there was an hour of exercise I wouldn't have gotten otherwise, as well as the game time I wanted to have in the first place, and all it required was a few dollars worth of pvc and a cabinet door.

You know you're addicted to WoW when you can't stop playing it to lose the weight you gained from playing it.

Nice stuff! I have thought about the same thing and its good to see something like that IRL that actually seems to work! Way more fun than watching reruns of Friends on the DVR and missing out on some hot daily quest action!
