I walked 4.2 miles on my treadmill in 40 minutes, with wrist weights and a break every 10 minutes for push-ups & squats totaling 28 of each.

IMDb Movie Outline: An uptight IRS agent is ordered to investigate a rural family in debt to the government...but the family - including lovely daughter Mariette - help him loosen up.
