Yogging to work

edited June 2008 in Social Entropy++
I'm considering jogging to work as a means of regular exercise and saving money. The trip is 3.7 miles, would be at 7:00 AM, and I would probably have to shower and dress in the locker room afterwards.

How many of you jog or ride a bike to work? How far do you travel? What do you do about being a sweaty mess upon arriving at the office?

    I ride a bike to work, nominally

    but the weather has been awful lately and my tattoo gets unbearably itchy when I sweat, so I haven't been lately

    I normally just show up early for work and run then.

    My boss rides his bike in to work some days, he's about 5 miles away, which isn't much.

    I used to jog/ride a bike to work. I only lived about 10k away from base so it was not bad at all. The only thing that sucked was staying late and getting stuck in bad weather but besides that it is very healthy.

    It's 85 degrees, with 75% humidity here.

    I don't want to go outside, much less exert myself while outside.

    I'd ride a bike to work if I had one. Also if I didn't have to go down some terrifying roads to get there.

    Oh well. Driving is pretty great.

    Lindsay and I and Kate are going to the zoo on Saturday. I plan on taking a slow trip and drawing most of the time, which will likely be painfully boring for anyone that has to sit around and wait for me, so having more folks, such as yourself, for Lindsay and Kate to hang out with would likely be a boon for them.

    I've walked at least two miles a day pretty much every day since I was 5. As a result I have massive legs (although they are pretty firm).

    awesome

    I want to be there fairly early. Like, around 11 or so. Which may not seem early to you, but if you factor in the drive time for me to get down there it is about as early as I'm likely to manage on a Saturday.

    I walk home every day, which is about a mile and a half.

    I get driven to school, because I wake up at 7:30, and leave at 7:40, and the bell rings at 7:50.
