I already do this to a degree. I love listening to audiobooks and I only do it on my commute and when I'm out walking. I think maybe I need to limit it to just walking, and sweeten the reward even more!

I listen to podcasts when I'm walking. I download them on my phone and carry a $1 pair of earbuds. It really helps keep my mind off the monotony of the walking.

I also found that walking in a parking garage helps keep things from getting boring. All the curves and ramps and dodging the cars :-) keeps my mind busy. Plus going up and down the ramps adds a little diversity to the walk.

I was always bored to tears on treadmills and stationary bikes, even when I was able to watch TV while doing it. I was always watching the clock.

I love my Peanut Butter whey shakes with banana. I only get one after a good workout.

You can increase your running speed easily by doing it in rough neighborhoods.
