| 0:00.0 | Today I want to talk about the benefits of five different step goals. |
| 0:07.0 | Hi, I'm Dave. Welcome to Walking is Fitness, a daily 10-minute podcast designed to provide you with a little added motivation, |
| 0:13.0 | a little added encouragement to get out the door, take the walk, and more importantly, to build a life-changing walking habit. |
| 0:20.0 | Today's 10-minute walk starts right after this. |
| 0:24.6 | Drinking enough water consistently is super important, but have you ever considered what's in the water you're drinking? |
| 0:31.6 | This is why I started using Cove Pure to purify my water at home. The EPA has confirmed that millions of homes are still receiving |
| 0:39.9 | water through lead pipes. Here's the thing, lead has no taste, no smell, and it doesn't change |
| 0:44.3 | the color of your water. But it has been directly linked to elevated blood pressure and cardiovascular |
| 0:49.5 | disease. This is what we're walking every day to protect against. And for children, even small amounts of lead can cause permanent brain damage. |
| 0:59.0 | Cove Pure is an amazing reverse osmosis water purifier that's lab certified to remove up to 99.9% of contaminants. |
| 1:10.0 | Lead, arsenic, PFA, chlorine, all of it. Cove Pure is beautiful, |
| 1:15.7 | compact, and requires no skill to install, just plug it in. And I love how Cove Pure has preset |
| 1:23.8 | cup sizes, 8 or 16 ounces. Tracking how much I'm drinking is effortless. I can also |
| 1:31.1 | choose different temperature settings, cold glass of water right after a walk, hot tea in the evening. |
| 1:37.0 | You're walking every day because you care about your long-term health. Make sure that what you're |
| 1:41.2 | drinking supports that work. Go to covepure.com slash walking right now and get |

| 2:04.5 | Peloton universe, earnings call, instructors news, product updates, drama, rumors, we're breaking it down, |
| 2:10.7 | and we also probably broke the story. Not only do we tell you about the news, we analyze it. We tell |
| 2:16.3 | you why it's important to you and your workouts. We're fans, but we're honest. We celebrate the wins and call out the weird stuff. And we know there's a lot of weird stuff. A lot of weird stuff. So if you can't get enough Peloton, we're the place to go. It's called The Clip Out. And you can get us wherever you got the podcast you're listening to right now. We take the content seriously ourselves. Not so much. |
| 2:37.0 | When you're just getting started building a consistent walking habit, practice, routine, |
