I went walking yesterday outside. It was BEAUTIFUL!! I noticed all the trash along the pathway and was saddened by it... I was thinking, why not do some good for nature while doing good for my body? I got the benefit of a walk with squats and lunges -- all the while feeling better about doing good for the environment. When I was done with my walk, I had a level of satisfaction I'd never experienced before (and 3 grocery bags full of trash)
SO, I'd like to challenge all of you to take along a bag (or three) and collect some garbage on your walks this spring / summer. Please, please help clean up your little piece of this world!! I know I would appreciate your help!!

    Awesome! We do have gloves... I can't imagine not!
    I'm glad at least one person who read this is already making a difference.
    Thank you!

    I saw some of my neighbors doing that this weekend. Sometimes when I walk the dogs if I haven't used the bag to pick up dog poop I will pick up the garbage on the side of the road. Next time I will bring to bags and pick up both.

    GREAT CHALLENGE!!!!!!!!
