I try to get out and walk the dog. Both of us get exersice that way, and the dog likes it. My neighborhood has some short but steep hills so taking the dog out for a couple of miles is a pretty good workout. The neighbors do give me funny looks when I walk the dog wearing a backpack (filled with bags of sand). I also will take hikes up Mount Wachusett when I have the time. Door to door, I can hike the steep Pine Hill trail, hit the summit and be back home in an hour and 45 minutes. At work, we have a conference room on the 5th floor. I'll take the stairs. I rarely take the elevator anyway. I also play ice hockey about 3 times a week from September to April and then on Sundays when I am not hiking or climbing in the summer. I also try to get out one day a week after work during nice weather to go to the local crag and do some rock climbing.
