My goal today is to help you feel a little less weird.

Hi, I'm Dave. Welcome to Walking as Fitness, a daily 10-minute podcast designed to provide you

with a little added motivation to get out the door, take the walk, and keep going.

Today's 10-minute walk starts right after this.

We've got temperatures right around freezing, a little breezy,

puts the wind chill below freezing.

Partly, I'll say partly, I'll be optimistic, partly sunny skies.

And the next handful of days it is going to be getting colder here in Myrtle Beach.

And right now there's talk of snow this weekend which is rare for for us even without the

snow the weekend probably won't see temperatures above freezing even even for a

high it is during these kinds of weather conditions, when it gets really cold, when there's snow,

ice on the surface, on pavement, sidewalks, roads, etc.

That I tend to spend a little bit more time indoors

getting my steps walking inside.

And I know, I know.

Yesterday I talked about the gift of winter and how getting outside when it's cold

is helping me to

lean into discomfort.

And I'm doing that right now.

But there's always the opportunity,

the option of walking inside, to keep going, to keep moving forward.

If you have a step goal, a daily step goal, it's an opportunity to reach the goal and not be dissuaded by the cold and the conditions outside your front door.
