I think I could have timed today's episode a little bit better, but it is what it is.

Hi, I'm Dave. Welcome to Walking is Fitness, a daily 10-minute podcast designed to provide you

with a little added motivation to get out, take the walk, and to build a life-changing walking habit.

Today's 10-minute walk starts right after this.

I'm always intrigued when I hear someone describe walking as boring.

I don't like walking. It's boring. Can't do that. It's boring. I get bored when I walk and if that's you I mean

no disrespect it's just not my reality it's not my perspective and I've never found walking

boring I don't mean to say that every walk is the most exciting thing I've ever done,

but I've never been so bored with walking that it keeps me from opening the door and heading out.

There are other things that ding my motivation, but boredom is not one of those.

And I got to thinking, and if you disagree, let me know.

But I think every walk is like a snowflake.

Every snowflake is different, every snowflake is unique.

There is no other snowflake like the one that you're holding before it melts. Never has been, never will be. And I think every walk has the same quality. Every walk is like a snowflake. It is different from every other walk you've taken. This walk that you're taking right now is a walk that you've never taken before and it's a walk that you will never take again. Here are the different components. I believe that go into creating this walking is a snowflake metaphor the weather you know the weather that I'm

walking that I'm enjoying right now is different from the weather that I walked in yesterday the

day before the day before that I'm not a weather scientist. And to my untrained eye, I could say, yeah, I've been

in weather like this before, but precisely like this? Uh, probably not. Where you're walking,

maybe you're taking a different route

maybe you're taking the same route

but doing it a little bit differently

and it's not just

where you're walking but it's what's happening
