I am not a runner but I definitely enjoy a good walk with nature. Changes your whole perspective and clears your mind. Great for mind, body and soul.
This is so true! It’s excellent Meryl you get out for nature walks, those truly are the best walks!
great looking site
Thank you 😀
Love how clear and easy you make it seem. Wish I could commit to a 10 min walk daily. I am doing a few stretches every morning and getting up from computer more often.
This program is for me! I’m motivated! OK….. I’m gonna subscribe to the newsletter! Thanks! 🙂
Way to go Caroline, you’ll love it!
Thank you Alexandra! You are in great shape, walking 4 to 5 miles 3to5 days per week is excellent and in the good fit zone.

That’s great Roslyn! Getting up more often is what we want and it all happens so gradually, it’s almost unnoticed! Stretching is great for all of us too!
Sounds like a great program. For anyone who wants to learn to run I highly recommend joining a program, it makes it so much easier.
I’m not a runner, knee injuries won’t allow it, but I did decide to walk 1/2 marathon several years back. I joined a training program and it was the best incentive to do it.
Way to go Heather, a great way to stay fit!
It is totally amazing how much freedom being fit and healthy gives you! You are much less likely to limit yourself in your total living.
This is true Pat, maintaining a good fitness goes a long way!
You make it sound so easy, Gilly! Kudos to you as you continue to inspire people to move, walk & run. Spread your message! x0x
Thanks Norma, I’m glad I’ve inspired and I hope I touch a lot of people! Watching this world becoming a healthier place! 🙂
Thanks Norma, that makes me feel awesome 🙂
I am learning more and more about the importance of stretching.
Stretching is an important fitness too, it helps to keep us limber. As the years go by we get stiffer, we can prevent so many ailments just by stretching!
That is perfect Sharon, stretching is good for us as we get older!
I love spending time in nature and doing it running and/or walking is so much fun! Lovely post!
Thanks Takara, I’m big on spending time with nature and wouldn’t have it any other way 🙂
Takara that’s awesome and thank you!
Not a runner, but love to walk and think that we should run/walk always. I create the habit, when I’m walking alone, to listen the audios of my classes, and feel so proud of myself to make the most of my time, when I try to get in shape! 🙂
Excellent job, it’s enjoyable or nice change of pace when you include music or a form of audio to keep you going!
Awesome job Meire, you’re getting out there and building the foundations of a great workout!
Trying to learn to run but shins hurt really bad and I feel like I’m so heavy stomping down on my feet. I’ve been walking fast and after a short while the shins are better. What am I doing wrong when I run?
Hi Tonya it sounds like you need better shoes or your posture needs help. Are your shoes new and do you use them only for running? When you run keep your head up and run by lifting ankles. Please Sign up on the right, it’s free and I can help you with your program.
