I can't keep up...

People around here walk like they're being stalked or something.
It's about 6-8 blocks (slightly uphill) from the train station to work and many of the train riders work in the same bldg as I do. Now, admittedly, I tend to mosey-along when I walk but, lately, I've been trying to keep up with the masses... I'm just not used to walking that fast... Take this morning for example, I was moving at a pretty good clip - or so I thought. Then, I noticed that there was a group of 5 or so people trying to pass. I step aside then try to keep pace. By the time we're two blocks away, my calves are burning, my feet are aching, and I'm starting to perspire...and the group is about 3/4-block ahead at this point...what's the rush?

Now, yesterday, I didn't have a problem keeping up...but I had extra motivation due to the, um, rumbling in my stomach....
