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

So one of the things that walking has really provided for

even myself over the last probably five years is the opportunity to process, think through, talk about some health challenges

that we've both been facing, but primarily Ava. And recently, she's had this chronic cough that started with a virus.

And she has asthma.

That was what triggered it.

But the virus went away.

The asthma has been treated.

But the cough remains.

And so she's seen a number of doctors to rule out the bad stuff,

but still there's not a consensus on here's what's causing it. And walking has been really helpful

for both of us as we process.

She's talking through the options.

And it's actually one of the things since I've been walking pretty consistently for fitness for more than 10 years, time and time again, over and over again.

When life gets challenging, walking is a fantastic way, a powerful way, a profound way,

to work through those challenges, to think through those challenges, to process those challenges.

So my encouragement for you is if you're facing something that's difficult and you have the ability and the opportunity to take a walk, even to consistently do it, I think you'll find it particularly helpful.

So it is a spring morning here in Myrtle Beach.

Rain is in the forecast later.

It is a little breezy, but I'm walking in an area that has trees,

so the breeze is somewhat buffered by these trees.

The temperature is comfortable. It is a very pleasant morning for a walk.
