Old dog, new tricks (old tricks) - play outside!

I was headed to the gym this morning for a cardio warm up and then weights when I saw how many of you were logging walks . . . so I decided to warm up with a walk instead. I'd forgotten just how much better cardio can be OUTSIDE!

(Now, I still have to be off to the gym, but after a much more enjoyable warm up than usual.)

Thanks guys!

    I love my walks! ;) I am so blessed to be on 7 acres. I lived the city apartment life for many, many years! Now with my fitbit it's even better! :)

    It just is so much easier to keep walking when I am outside. When I walk on the treadmill, I tend to walk a lot less and slower.
    That and the puppy wants to keep going, lol.

    I love walking to

    I went and met my hubby on his lunch hour so we could go for a
    walk round the lake at the local university

    It was lovely and relaxing
