| 0:00.0 | Today's 10-minute walk is happening on an old abandoned road near the Myrtle Beach Airport. |
| 0:12.0 | At one time, for many years, this used to be the Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, but that was decommissioned, I guess, in the 90s. |
| 0:27.0 | And so I'm also guessing that this road was part of the Air Force base. |
| 0:43.0 | And since the base is no more, this road is essentially a road to nowhere through a wooded area and rarely used, except right now for our 10-minute walk. I was out yesterday and went past a lilac bush. Now, I need to be really clear that I'm not |
| 0:53.0 | someone who recognizes different kinds of bushes |
| 0:56.9 | or trees or plants. In fact, Ava and I will be out walking and walk past a neighbor's house |
| 1:05.2 | and she'll look in their front yard and say, look at that amazing, and then mention a plant name, and I'm like, |
| 1:13.6 | I have no idea which one. |
| 1:16.6 | Give me a color. |
| 1:17.6 | Is it the red one or the blue one? |

| 1:36.7 | And I'm just like, oh, this is wonderful. |
| 1:57.5 | It's one of the great things about walking is that when I'm not focused on something else, either a podcast that I'm listening to or something I'm thinking about or a conversation that I'm having, that I can be aware of what's going on around me. |
| 2:05.2 | And I can be aware of the aromas as well as the sounds. And it makes walking, |
| 2:10.1 | at least for me, and I don't think I'm alone in this, it makes walking even more fun. |
| 2:17.3 | Welcome to walking is fitness. This is a podcast of action, providing a little extra motivation to help you keep that fitness promise you made yourself. |
| 2:19.3 | Hi, I'm Dave. Today's 10-minute walk is powered by my Shocks headphones. |
| 2:24.3 | I mentioned being able to hear what's happening around me, and I can do that even while I'm listening to a podcast or music while I'm out walking because the shock's headphones, |
| 2:34.9 | the speakers sit in front of my ears and I'm free to hear what's happening. Sometimes it's |
| 2:41.6 | an issue of safety. If I'm out walking and there's traffic behind me or someone, if I'm sharing |
| 2:48.5 | the space with someone on a bike and they ring their little bell, |
