So for the first time in my life, I am walking for exercise.....
I always walked a lot but that was to get places....

Now I'm so far our in the suburbs, a walk to any place good can take over two hours there and back..

So I'm going to "drive" to that walking track my city has built so that we can all get exercise in this motor based suburb we call home.....

Oh the irony and it isn't even apparent to those who live here.....

If I didn't have the O2 tank, I'd just walk to the high school track and run ten laps.....

Oh well.....

2. That's good!
I love walking for exercise. It makes me feel so good when I'm done with the workout. Keep it up!

A friend sent me a picture of a 24 Hour Fitness Gym that had a huge escalator leading up a short hill to the front door! Only in America!

:hi:

Forgot to add: Good for you! And keep up the good work...I drive to my gym, as do most people I know...Otherwise the gym routine takes all day...
