A walking experience I won't soon forget.

Hi, I'm Dave. Welcome to Walking is Fitness, a daily 10-minute podcast designed to provide you

with a little added motivation to get out the door and take the walk.

Today's 10-minute walk starts right after this. The day after the big snow here in

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, I think we got somewhere between four and six inches, depending on

where you were. So today, we've got blue sky.

Temperature right now is 20 degrees, a little breezy feels like 12.

Yesterday after the snow finished up, and it lingered about an hour after I recorded yesterday's

episode.

There were still some light flurries in the area.

The sky cleared and we had brilliant sunshine all day yesterday, but the temperature might have

reached freezing at its warmest.

It was really windy.

Even though I joked that my discomfort level has its limits,

I knew that once Ava woke up,

we were going to head out, take a walk, explore,

enjoy the winter wonderland that our neighborhood had become. And sure enough,

once she woke up, she was excited, ready to go. So we layered up, suited up, and headed out

for what I thought was going to be a very modest walk, maybe around our neighborhood.

Because at that point, snow was still covering the sidewalk, still covering the roads.

There was no clear path, which you would expect, you know, soon after four to six

inches finishes falling.
