The older I get, the more I appreciate health, and I'm not alone.

Hi, I'm Dave. Welcome to Walking is Fitness.

This is a daily podcast providing a little added motivation to help you get out the door, take the walk, keep moving forward.

Today's 10-minute walk starts after this today's

ten minute walk is happening near the Myrtle Beach International Airport you can

hear a jet rolling down the runway I can't't see it, I can hear it.

And it's probably airborne now and at some point.

In the next moment or two, I may see it.

I'm walking in an area right now where my view is obscured by trees.

And the skies are clear, so once I get past the trees I may see the jet.

I want to share something I recently read in Medium. It's a blog post, article, essay,

not sure how you would describe it by someone named C.W. Fong.

And it's titled Health, the We Overlook.

And just briefly, and this I thought was pretty profound.

In our youth, health often feels like an infinite resource.

We assume our bodies will always bounce back no matter how we treat them, yet as the years

advance, the cumulative impact of neglect becomes unmistakable, manifesting in ways that money

alone cannot fix.

This year I've come to see health as more precious than gold,

a treasure that requires daily care and intention.

The lesson is clear, health is not a passive state but an active pursuit,

one that determines the quality of every other aspect of life.
