And hello, are you ready for our 10-minute walk?

Welcome to Walking is Fitness.

This is a podcast of action as we walk together for 10 minutes.

Yes, I am walking right now along the busy road. As I am walking, it is early morning. The sun has not yet popped over the tree line. I do have early daylight, so I'm not walking in the dark. And here in South Carolina, it is cool, but it is not cold like other parts of the

country. And if you're walking in very cold weather today or worse, you're doing a really hard

thing. Congratulations on that. This episode is sponsored by the Stepfit plan. It is a one-year plan to help you transition

your walking from functional to fitness. It does require first establishing a fitness habit

that over time transitions to fitness momentum, eventually leading to fitness transformation.

I want you to have it again.

It's free.

It's effective.

And it's yours, walking as fitness.com, the resource page.

Hi, I'm Dave.

yesterday about some spectacular goal failures I've had over the years. And I mentioned that not, I mentioned it yesterday, and I mentioned again today, not to

discourage you from setting goals.

I think goals are good.
