I was inspired by this article to create a treadmill workstation for my work at home fridays. My friend gave me an old treadmill, And rather than spend a $1,000 for a custom workstation, i just placed a piece of shelving on top of the rails to hold my laptop.

Walking while i work also helps keep me focused on my work.

I’ve been going to spin class 2-3 times a week during my lunch hour for six months. I supplement with one strength or flexibility session when I can.

I can’t emphasize enough the mental health benefits of aerobic exercise. Bring all your baggage into a spin class and leave feeling better. It makes your load just a little lighter.

I only got through 9 Books in 2009. I will do better next year by keeping a book with me always and only reading books I’m interested in, rather than ‘I should read this’ books.
