Today's 10-minute walk is starting under cloudy skies, and I say starting because here in South Carolina and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, the weather can change really quickly.

We went out for a walk the other night. We left the house and we're thinking this is going to be one of those summer evening walks,

beautiful sky, and we got, I don't know how far, and we turned around and looked behind us

and there was this massive storm cloud.

It was like, oh, where was that when we left?

So clouds now, but in 10 minutes these could be gone.

The ocean is just two miles in that direction.

I'm pointing left, two miles in that direction.

And this is probably scientifically not how it works,

but this is how I imagine it, that the breeze, the wind off the ocean pushes the clouds back inland.

So that may be happening.

Got an email earlier this week from Mary.

Mary is a listener in Seattle.

And she wanted me to know about a podcast that have just been released on Monday.

And maybe you've heard of it, the Mel Robbins podcast, very popular.

And Mel's guest was Dr. Shane O'Mara, who is an expert on the science of walking

and the benefits that we get from walking.

From time to time, I'll talk about research during our 10-minute walk,

but I talk about it very much in layman's terms

and not with a full understanding of what I'm talking about,

because it's a bit above my pay grade,

but I find it interesting and I want you to know about it.
