You can be a game changer for someone else, starting today.

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 to yourself.

Hi, I'm Dave. I've been walking for fitness since 2013, averaging about 21,000 steps

a day. I'm walking right now and would love to have you join me for the next 10 minutes.

I really am going to need to learn how to identify colors as I was leaving my house this morning,

getting ready to record today's episode,

the sun was rising, and it was a beautiful sky, and I'm looking at the colors thinking,

okay, how do I describe this? Is that coral?

Is it salmon?

Or do I simply say,

it's a pinky orange?

I know it's not purple or green,

but when you get into that red,

orange, pink spectrum and all those nuanced colors,

I'm a little deficient.

Anyhow, beautiful sunrise.

Hope the weather where you are is equally as beautiful and as enjoyable as we walk today. Thanks for joining me. I want to read a post from the Start Today Facebook group. This is a group that is run by the Today Show, over 80,000

members, and they're pursuing fitness. Most of them, those who post, are using walking as either their primary fitness activity

or an important fitness activity.

And so the posts are, they range from, here's what I've done, celebratory to questions about different gear and motivation.

That's a big topic.
