From August 29th, 2020 to today, I've taken at least 20,000 steps per day. After some quick math, this comes out to over 2.9 MILLION STEPS?!

Now I know what you're thinking, why would you want to walk that much?

To answer this, I have to take you back.

During a week long business trip in the fall 2019, I lived the "salary-man" work schedule in the hustle and bustle of Tokyo, Japan.

Everywhere I went, everyone appeared to be headed to their destination with a sense of purpose and direction.

Or maybe they were running late.

No matter the reason, that trip inspired me to take more steps as a way to clear my head and relax.

Until the next 2 million steps, follow for more introspective haiku.
