Go walking every day

You can’t walk, if you can’t walk. I’m not in a wheelchair yet, but it won’t be soon.

Tonight I walked for 35 minutes with my Rod Stewert cd. I forgot how much I loved walking, and how good I feel when I do it!

After having children, I decided I want to be a role model to them. Last year I lost 16 pounds, but the weight is starting to creep back on. I want to demonstrate to my kids that taking care of yourself and your body is an important part of everday life. I think that walking is the best exercise aside from weight training. It has always helpped me to stay trim and reduce stress. Now the challenge will be to walk everyday. My goal is to walk for 35 minutes, seven days a week.

not long ago i walked everywhere in the city everyday, now i have stopped due to laziness and my current excuse is the cold. but tomorrow i will again, i have get back into shape and take that hour out of my day to walk and reflect and open my mind.

I have been walking everyday, 15 000 steps per day mostly. Few days I wasn’t able to do that, because I was sick, but I got back to the streets as soon as I could.

This is one of the hardest things for me to do, but one I know I should do. My damaged leg makes it hard to go very far and I’m usually in pain when I return. But I know the exercise, fresh air and sunshine are good for me inspite of all that, and even with the pain, I am getting other benefits. It’s just convincing myself of all that, that’s the hard part.

Even if it is just around the block, this goal goes hand in hand with my Gym Goal – I need to move and lose it!
