What is it about water?

It rains and we get under the umbrella.

Or if we don't have an umbrella, we put our hand over our head and we run,

so we don't get as wet, or maybe it feels like we don't get as wet because we're not out in it quite as long.

When we're at the beach

and standing at the edge of the ocean and a wave comes, we back up because we don't want the

wave crashing on us, even though we're standing in water. If there's a puddle on the sidewalk,

what do we do? We step around it. If someone has a squirt gun and they start shooting at you, what do you, you run away?

What is it about water? Hi, this is Dave. Welcome to walking as fitness, a podcast designed to help

you transform your life by walking more and walking more intentionally. You can exercise all day long, but if you're not also eating well, getting the rest you need,

and staying hydrated, you're really not optimizing your health.

And this week I want to take just a few minutes and talk about hydration and really the best

source of hydration, which is water.

And you know what? A lot of us hate drinking water. We do whatever we can to avoid it.

And even when we maybe understand intellectually that drinking water is a healthy thing to do,

it's an incredibly difficult habit to establish and sustain.

But this week, I have some ideas for you that I think will help if you're so inclined

to maybe begin the transition from whatever it is you're drinking now to more water.

So let's get to it.

Enjoy.

And thanks for listening.

I couldn't believe what I just heard.
