National Walking Day

National Walking Day is every year on the first Wednesday in April.  That's today, so here is a question for you to ponder while you walk:  Would you rather walk through a city or through the woods exploring nature?  I'd have to see whether the sun is shining or it's raining.  I enjoy walking outside when there is not too much pollen in the air.  I use a Rollator, so I no longer walk in the woods, as I once enjoyed.  Just keep walking to stay as healthy as you can.

National Walking Day

April 3rd is National Walking Day, so today let's walk!  That way, we join the American Heart Association by stepping out and (maybe) adopting a healthy habit.  Hey, puppy dogs aren't the only ones who need to go for a walk!  And if you've been feeling socially isolated, invite a friend to walk with you.  Do it anyway, because we all need to adopt the healthy habit of taking a walk.

How many steps are in a mile?  I googled to find out.  Based on an average step length of 2-1/2 feet, there are approximately 2,000 steps in one mile.  So that means when my phone recorded 10,452 steps the other day, I had walked over 5 miles.  Wow!
