  • 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 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.
