Walking for good health in Kentlands
ActiveRain blogger Dr. Stacey-Ann Baugh has challenged members to join her plan for a more healthy year. There is a new group called Get Healthy in the Rain Group.
The first element of the challenge is to write a blog about the goal. This is the easy part. For many years, my exercise routine has included an hour walk through the communities of Kentlands and Lakelands in Gaithersburg, Maryland. I was sick during most of this month and stopped my regular walks. So, my goal it to get back in the habit of those daily walks which make me feel better and also provide an element that helps with weight control.
Frequently, I turn my walks into photowalks by having my camera in hand to capture the colors of the season. I recommend neighborhood walks to all ActiveRain members. No special equipment is needed. Dress warmly and have a comfortable pair a shoes is a good basic suggestion.
No outside support is needed for a walking program. You either do it or not.
