I love to walk! It has become my exercise of choice the last several months. It takes no special fitness equipment or supplies. A good pair of walking shoes is all I need. I live on a road that dead-ends, so it's a nice place to walk because there's no through traffic. I'm out in the country, so the walking is superb. Sometimes I drive to a local park that has a pond with a track around it, so I take my walking workouts there. I don't walk specifically for weight loss, but to get in shape and tone up. Walking is not only good for my body, but for my soul. I feel refreshed both mind and body. It invigorates me but doesn't totally wear me out like other workouts tend to do. My husband started walking with me not long after I began, so it's a great time for us to spend together and talk while we walk. I just love my walking workouts, the time outside and the stress relief that I feel afterward.
