1 Hour into "Just take the stairs"

I know it is cliche to say "just take the stairs" but I work on the 6th floor of the building so I thought, hey it could help.  I've only been doing it for an hour and, perhaps this is simply commentary on how out of shape I am, but after going down to the second floor only to show up to a meeting 30 minutes early and have to turn around and go back up to the 6th floor and then go down again. Well, I can see how it can help.  However, I may grow to hate my shoes as they sound like I am wearing plastic old man garden sandals.  It should be noted that I am in fact wearing some casual Dr. Martins.  On the plus side I am sweating, with is always appreciated at work.
