Not entirely sure, but I suspect some of these people are driving to work, but I wonder how many of them will be intentional about walking while they are at work.

Hi, I'm Dave. Welcome to Walking is Fitness, a daily 10-minute podcast, providing you with a little added motivation to get up and take the walk.

Today's 10-minute walk starts right after this.

A gentle rain during this walk, although there's a possibility that the intensity of the rain may pick up.

I don't know if you can hear it, but I've also got wind.

So it's a windy, rainy walk, although in just a moment

I'm going to turn off the sidewalk and head down a path

that has some trees alongside,

and at least for me, that's going to probably buffer the wind just a bit.

So the cars that you heard earlier because I'm walking after sunrise but I guess this would be

considered early morning commute. Some of those drivers, I suspect, were heading to work.

And I posed the question, I wonder how many will be intentional about walking while there at work.

So I got a message from Kathy. And Kathy says, I've been walking for many years.

It has helped me immensely.

I work at a desk job and I get up every couple of hours to walk a lap in the hall.

I also walk on my lunch break.

Walking at work was one of those things that I became very intentional about when walking became my primary fitness activity I was doing

morning radio at the time and if you know anything about radio there's a control board and you sit in front of the

control board and in our case it was a music format formatted station and when the song was done

you turn the microphone on you would talk start the next song or the commercials turn the microphone off well I was not the one running the control board

because I was part of a three-person morning radio team and I would actually

take advantage of multi-song sets without us talking in between the songs
