Today's 10 minute walk is helping both of us remain fitness consistent.

Hi, I'm Dave. Let's go for a walk.

Today I'm walking along a wooded trail.

What I mean by that is I've got trees on both sides of a fairly wide walking path. It is not paved. There's a lot of

pine needles. You can hear those. And the sun is shining. It is cool. Every now and

then I'll hear a bird in the distance and also every now and then I'll hear a plane in the distance

because I'm near the Myrtle Beach International Airport.

But right now it is a very relaxing, peaceful walk.

It's not necessarily in the middle of nowhere because this trail isn't very long

and I can see the end of the wooded trail on either side.

I see Homes in that direction and then as I turn around and look a little further down the trail I can see cars on a main road.

And this trail does not take me 10 minutes to walk from end to end.

So probably more likely as I will turn around and head in the other direction for the full 10 minutes of our walk together.

But I just wanted to paint the picture of where I'm walking.

Susan posted something in the start today Facebook group.

Good morning, everyone. Yesterday I walked 15,591 steps, which equals 5.78 miles. There was an article in Women's Health magazine. How many miles should you walk and both of these got me thinking because I don't think in terms of miles walked since I got my first step

tracker in January of 2013 which threw gas on my fitness fire it just

been burning bright ever since and so I always think in terms of steps never

miles even though a couple of swipes on my step tracker and I can see how many

miles it is. Reality is I'm used to counting steps. So it's what I'm used to. But I also think

that steps allow, at least for me, it allowed me to make adjustments,

increases in something that felt more tangible.
