in Introduce Yourself
I'm a 26 yr old mom to 3 awesome little girls we live in South San Antonio, TX. I was doing great at first walking 2 miles each morning but it gets boring doing it alone. I've been slacking these last few days. Hopefully I can find some or a local to walk with.
Thanks for your time :smile:

    Do you have a portable music player you could take? I love my time alone in nature, it helps me recharge myself.

    Don't make excuses for why you aren't going. Find reasons to go.

    Oh, and Welcome, by the way! :flowerforyou:

    There are usually walking groups in most towns, try looking online in your area.

    My mom used to walk and listen to books on tape/CD...I run, so I find that distracting...but you might try it. Anything that helps!

    +1. My uncle has an audible account which allows up to 5 devices. He uses 2 devices and he gave me his audible ID and password for my phone . I love walking in the evening (my dog staring at me tells me when this begins - he lets me go with him on the walk!) and listening to books. Great way to get some own time / workout time / dog time / catch up on books time.
