The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. -  Lao Tzu
 
The hardest thing to get is going.  If you don't start, you can't finish. 
I am trying to up my walking steps.  I have spinal issues that make it challenging.  I can't walk 3 miles straight but I can walk three miles most days by breaking it up into smaller segments.  You see, in stead of saying, "I can't", I just get up and walk!  I can walk around the house or head outside for a walk.  Here are a few hints:
 
  • Park further from the store.
  • If you can only walk 5 minutes, walk 5 mintues.  In a few days, you will be able to walk 10 minutes!  Keep it up adding a little time every other walk, if your doctor approves.
  • Walk up and down every aisle in the grocery store.
  • Walk in place. 
 
Just move!

Good evening Dee. I do walk quite a bit every day. I am not sure how many miles; it is a lot.

That's terrific, Michael Thornton   I use Stepwise, a free app to track on my phone but I miss steps if my phone is not in my pocket. 

Keep moving!

I can swim and bike without issue but walking is still a challenge.  I'm hitting 2500-3000 steps daily now.  I have neuorpathy in the feet due to a spine issue.  But there are other things I can do!
