Today we're going to start creating something fun for Mila and others, maybe even you.

Hi, I'm Dave. Welcome to Walking His Fitness. This is a daily 10-minute podcast that provides

a little added motivation to get out and take the walk, and I believe even more importantly

than that, to do it consistently,

maybe even every day. Today's 10-minute walk starts right after this.

The sun on my face actually feels really good. I think the sun came up maybe 30, 40 minutes ago. And as I look around,

I don't see any clouds. Not even a little tiny cloud. It is blue. It is cloudless. And I don't think

it's going to stay this way today. I think we actually have some rain in the forecast later.

Temperatures a little cooler than normal. The breeze a little stronger than usual.

So that sun on my face feels pretty good.

I got to know Mike through the comments that he was

leaving in most of the walking-his fitness YouTube videos. In fact I think he left a

comment for every video. In these comments he was sharing part of his story, which grabbed my attention because it's a pretty inspiring story.

Mike was overweight.

His health was not good.

Those health metrics that are important that the doctors point to and

that we watch, they weren't good.

And three years ago, Mike got serious about his health, he got serious about exercise, about

fitness, about doing the right things, and started walking consistently,

daily.

I reached out to Mike and said, hey, your story is pretty amazing.

And would you be willing to share the story and he said yes
