What is your favorite form of physical exercise?
Walking, walking and more walking!
I have always loved walking. There’s something so simple yet powerful about it. Here is why I love it so much:
– It clears my head. Walking helps me unwind after a busy day and process my thoughts.
– It lifts my mood. Even a short walk can completely change how I feel. It gives me space to just be.
– I love being outdoors. The sound of nature and the fresh air is food for the soul.
– It’s good for my health. Gentle movement that keeps me active without feeling like hard work.
– It’s versatile. I can walk with music, chat with someone, or enjoy peaceful solitude.
– It feels like freedom. Just putting one foot in front of the other gives me a sense of control and release.

I wish we could help younger people value walking. My partner and I discuss this a lot. When we were younger we would never have thought of taking a walk and just enjoying it. Now, any time we can see an opportunity we go out and love it.

That’s a great one Kate! Thank you! I see young people taking the lift to go up one floor. I tell them all the time, take the stairs while you can!

Walking is one of my favourite forms of exercise. And you don’t need much to do it – just a good pair of shoes, weather appropriate clothing, and some time!

I agree, Wayne. I used to be quite a runner and into weights and other forms of exercise but as I got older my body began having all sorts of issues and now I walk (or hike). It’s the best. No extra costs other than some shoes and it’s just as effective as other sorts of exercise. Cheers.
