Today's 10-minute walk is helping you stay consistent with fitness.

So let's go for a walk.

One of the things that I love seeing on the Start Today Facebook group,

by the way, if you're not familiar with this group, it's run by the Today Show. And I think they've been doing this, not least I've been aware of it

for a couple of years.

And there's an emphasis on the Today Show of helping

viewers get started primarily using walking as a fitness activity?

One of the things that I love seeing are posts from folks who probably have struggled with fitness in the past because fitness is hard, getting started is hard,icking with it is even harder. And so I imagine that that's

part of the context for these posts. But they'll post day seven of taking my walk and lots of

exclamation marks and they're excited. They're excited that they've stuck with it for

seven days they're excited about what they're accomplishing about the fitness victories that they are

experiencing i'm not someone who has embraced celebrating as something I routinely do.

I feel the satisfaction of a goal reached.

And usually that's about all I'll do.

It's just kind of sit in that satisfaction.

This was hard. I stuck with it.

This is pretty important. I generally don't do public celebrations. I don't invite others or really allow others to be part of those accomplishments and celebrations. And I'm not sure why.

I actually have been a little more intentional about being more public with, hey, this is,

this is a big deal. Last year, the podcast reached one million downloads. That was a big deal.

And it felt very satisfying, and I was also public about it. In fact, even invited you and other listeners

to be part of reaching the goal with updates throughout the year.

Here's where we are.
