Today's 10-minute walk is helping you keep the fitness promise you made to yourself

and is adding another link to your growing fitness chain.

Skies are clear in South Carolina here in Myrtle Beach.

I'm walking probably two miles away from the beach near the airport.

In fact, as I look off to my right, I can see one of the hotels, one of the beachside hotels.

It's probably two miles away, and I can see the top of it, just above the tree line.

And, yeah, even this time of year, there are going to be people at the beach.

Our first year here in Myrtle Beach, which was about three years ago.

I don't know if we walked or drove to the beach.

I just want to see the ocean. And there were quite a few people who were actually sitting on the beach. It was a mid-December day.

It was cool. It was sunny. But they were comfortable.

I don't think anybody was in the water.

And then there was the one year week.

I think it was New Year's Day.

And it was unusually warm.

I think the temperature was in the 70s.

And we had some friends who were staying with us for the New Year's holiday,

and it was his birthday on New Year's Day.

And we took our beach chairs and went to the beach. We were probably there for a couple of hours.

And I said to him, so when was the last time you spent your birthday, New Year's Day, at the beach? I knew the

answer. Never. So as I'm walking, I'm two miles from the beach, two miles from the ocean. And later

today, I suspect there will be some folks who are enjoying the beach, probably bundled up a bit.
