I listen to podcasts while I walk on the treadmill.
I like interviews the best, because the good interviewers ask the questions you want to ask, and the best guests open the conversation up to the audience, telling their story and leading you through their life, their thought processes.
I can lose myself for a while in the interview, and the walking becomes automatic. I don’t pay attention to my breathing, my sweating, my pain.
When the interview is done, I look down at the display panel.
One hour. Two miles. Two hundred calories burned.
I press STOP, and relax.
