All right, here we go.

Time for another walk together.

Welcome to Walking is Fitness.

This is a podcast of action as we take a 10-minute walk together,

holding each other accountable for keeping our commitment to fitness.

This episode sponsored by the Step Fit Plan. It is a one-year guide to help you transition your walking from merely functional, getting from point A to point B, from functional to fitness and all the benefits that comes with a consistent, intentional form of exercise.

The step-fit plan will help you first establish a fitness habit,

which over time becomes fitness momentum and eventually leading to fitness transformation.

The step-fit plan, it is free and it is yours,

it'll make a difference. I go to walkingis fitness.com, check out the resource page,

or you can also click the link in the show notes for this episode. Hi, I'm Dave, and I've got a question for you.

between five and six. And so my walk, I love the mornings.
