ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- There's a new movement afoot in office technology called the Walkstation.
It doesn't go above 2 mph, so walkers won't get winded.
The machine gives office workers a chance to stretch their legs, without even leaving the building.
"They do lose weight, they feel more energized, and they're not so tired at the end of the day," said marketing manager Julie Price. "They feel like they're more productive, and like they get more done."
The machines cost about $4,500.
