30. Buy a book-on-tape.

Forget cozying up to a good book -- instead, plug in a good book-on-tape and move as you read. Get lost (in thought, that is) on the walking path by listening to light-hearted, humorous prose by Dave Barry or scare yourself into a faster aerobic pace by listening to the king of horror, Stephen King. If you listen to all five of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter books, you'll be able to walk to China. Other favorite books-on-tape authors are: Scott Adams, Robin Cook, Patricia Cornwall, Ken Follett, and Michael Crichton.
