I love walking and some days I forget and just sit here working on my netbook. I hope to get out today - maybe even do some camping.

This is a good reminder thread to get out and walk, even if it's just for 15 minutes.

LOL Jilly, remember we use to have a thread for everyone when I was the Walking editor.

Hey Elizabeth, you up to it?

Hugs,
A

Funny that this topic should pop up today. I just got back from a nice 35 minute walk, when any other year I would be shovelling snow instead. But today is mild and sunny, and not a snowflake in sight. I would MUCH rather walk for exercise!

Way to go Claybird - they say 20 minutes or less daily is a good amount.

Good for you

Right, we did have our own walking threads! This works too, though.

Good on you, Claybird!

I am hoping Elizabeth checks in soon so that we can get her involved if she is interested. I notice she has posted a new article today and was wondering if she wanted some help with getting it linked on the forum. Like us all, she is working on this part of things. Yikes, I remember those days. Now I am so glad I can help other new folks with the forum.

Snow today! No walking any more, for a while at least. That's the trouble with living in the snow belt off of Lake Michigan. In the winter the only place I can walk is in the Mall, not a very pleasant place. I'm just glad I was able to get that unexpected walk in yesterday.

Thanks for the update Claybird - I did my usual 1/2 hour from home to the office.

Talk soon

Walking is aerobic exercise. It keeps you fit and it helps you take off extra weight and keep it off. Obesity has become an epidemic among Americans; it is especially troubling that so many American children are now overweight or obese. Numerous studies have shown that lack of exercise is a major factor.

Walking is no doubt the best exercise not only for maintaining good health but also to keep you away from different severe diseases as well. Walking exercise is simple and for the people of all age as well . Walking is also helpful to lose weight .
