A New Use For LEGO Bricks

With the ensuing shelter-in-place order gripping Colorado because of the COVID19 pandemic, life activities are now being conducted within home confines.

Part of the daily regimen my wife and I have adopted consists of morning exercise.  This includes going for brisk walks around the perimeter of the basement in our home.

After measuring the 'course', I found that 10 circuits equaled approximately one-third mile.

Of course, the walk takes us ten times through my workshop space where all of my LEGO building, model rocketry building, and woodworking takes place.

It just so happens that I have a random box of 2x2 blue bricks setting on the workbench.
Yesterday, each time we passed through the area, my wife would grab one brick out of the box and set it on the corner of the bench, using them as 'lap' counters for our walk.


We've continued doing this during each walk session conducted three times a day!

Perhaps I could modify this practice by setting out ten parts of a MOC build and clicking on a new piece to the model each time we pass by.....
