Should I do it?

So let me what you all think: I have a doctor's appointment today at 1:30 which is close to my job (about 5 minutes drive time). I am considering walking it (about 31 minutes and 1.6 miles). It will be 90degrees out at that time with 75-86% cloud coverage and a winds of 6 - 7 mph. Should I do it?

    Are you used to walking, especially in the heat? Remember, you have to walk back too. If you don't regularly walk, I would try to take on 3 miles in the heat unless I am used to it.

    If you normally walk, go for it! If not, go for a walk tonight when it is cooler.

    Are you going to have to put on a paper gown once you get there? I don't know about you but I'd hate to get all sweaty and then have to put on a paper gown that will stick to me.

    (I am not a big fan of weather over 75 degrees so I'm a bit biased here.)

    Yes you should. Take water. And music.
