Are you a teacher... professor... in the education field??

I'm a teacher and absolutely love my Surge and FitBit!!!

Any tricks, and hints on how to maximize my day while teaching... I'd love to increase my step count but during the day ... walking around in class gets old... hints... tricks and suggestions ? 

thank you !

Park at the far end of the teacher lot.

Do you have time to walk during your "off" period? Even if you take 15 minutes, that's better than nothing.

I work in a Special Ed. classroom, elementary.  I arrive at work at 6:30 a.m., before the building opens, and I walk.  Around and around and around, with my phone playing music.  I watch the sun come up and mentally prepare myself for the day ahead.  It's great.  I only go about a mile, (3000 steps give or take) so I don't get disgustingly sweaty and smelly, but it's a great way to start my day.  Sometimes if I'm able to leave the classroom I'll just walk the building, if I have time, just to get in a few steps here and there.

yaeh, actually, pretty nice idea, you know, I love sleeping, so it's been very difficult for me to get up early in the morning, however starting your day with not that long walk seems to be like a great idea, I would try it
