We're Walking...We're Walking...

My Cousin and His Wife walking by Lake Ontario
Goal: 30 minutes a day of 4-mile-per-hour walking
Requirements:
1. Good shoes
2. Good weather (relatively!)
3. Good time management (like, if you just got in from a 20 hour trip...not a good time to walk)
4. Healthy environment (mostly in Mexico and Peru we are kind of targets if we try to walk...especially regularly...in "public")
 However, walking is worth it.  That is me on the right, 35 pounds ago!!!  Those pants fall off of me now...and they are the right length, not too short like they are in the photo. 

1. Warm up - walk 5 minutes, stop, stretch.
2. Walk briskly for 25 minutes.
3. Stretch again.
4. Drink water.

I have tracked out 2 miles now...and some days I do it twice when it isn't raining!
