I have a large 1 story house that in 5 minutes I can walk 600 steps so each hour I walk and it is 6:45 and I have 6000 steps and have 7 more hours to go. I am determine to get my steps and miles in so I walk inside. When the sun is out that is where I will be. Make it work where you can don't see any obstacle's in front of you.

Good for you to get the workout in no matter what the outside weather....Getting the motivation going is everything. (I also was inside yesterday weather-bound....my workout was stepping on a milkcrate/running in place for 30 min while watching the Food Channel.
