Does commuting count as training?

My current commute is the antithesis of the that, and I'm too tired from actual training (or in need of quality recovery) to treat it as anything other than a safe and gentle journey from A to B.

This ^. Not that I am a trackie, or properly train for anything, but partly due to advice from BMMF (and possibly also RPM, can't remember now) in this forum I now view commuting as a gentle roll from A-B and am trying to avoid the silly commuter racing, I found it very counter-productive.

So now consciously trying to slow myself down and not exert too much on the commute.
