I've found it helpful to walk while I read difficult material. It makes it harder for me to turn to a distracting website. When I get tired I stop reading and enjoy the scenery for a couple minutes, which helps me feel a little refreshed.

Sometimes I plan to walk somewhere a few hours away. That way I have to keep going.

How do you avoid running into things if you are reading while walking? How do you take notes?
