My first long walk this year

That is very good to do everyday. I try to take a wok everyday. I do want to start walking in the morning and the evening as well. Believe me, if you eat right and walk, you will lose that extra weight. But never exercise right out of the starting gate. Always walk for a while fist. Then start of easy. Good luck getting in shape. I need a lot of help.

hi there, when i was in college i would walk everyday to school and then i would stand for 8 hours during our duty in the hospital. i was used to it. but when i graduated, i got too lazy and i just stay at home and in bed most of the time. and then now i get tired easily because i haven't been active. 2 weeks ago, my boyfriend and i went to Hong Kong. it was our first time and so we would get lost. we walked and ran from morning to evening and my gosh, i was so tired but my boyfriend just keeps gong hehehe he doesn't get tired right away because he used to it. he walks and jogs almost everyday going to work in New York. and it was winter in Hong Kong too and it was hard for me because i am not used to that kind of climate because i live in a tropical country. yeah if we do this everyday and be active, we wont be tired easily. i am actually looking forward to more adventures like that again

One of my favorite things about the spring is the fact that we are able to get out and enjoy the weather and exercise when the weather breaks after the end of the winter. For us, it has been unseasonably warm and because of that we've been able to be outside a lot even through the winter. However, I have to admit that the thing that I'm looking the most forward to is getting my bike out and riding after not having ridden for a while.

Last summer, me and the kids got into hiking. We went through some of the trails near here which were 2 or 3 hours long. The first few times, the kids complained, but after a while they also started to enjoy it. I think we will do the same again this year. I too experienced the hurt feeling in the lungs, but I think it's all good. Loosing a few pounds isn't bad either!

I think you can keep going with your walking practice regularly on all days. Really it helps us a lot. It helps us to maintain a good proper health. I hope you will continue this. You feel hurting yourself and all other hings before you was doing them for the first time. Regular practices help you to get away from them.

I worry about you saying your lungs and ribs were hurting, but overall it is good to get out and have that excersize. There is an easy way and a hard way to loose wieght. I am thinking walking is one of the easier ones. I chose to do it through eating less sugar and fat and an excersize bike and that bike almost killed my legs. I'm not going to go through that way again, I'd rather start walking again. I'm glad now you don't feel tired from it. Thats a good sign. I might try and get a slower start then gradually move up to longer walks if possible.

i used to do that when my kids were little but now i have a bad back and sore knees so i cannot walk that long without sitting in between. i do make an effort to walk around the block every day though.

Sounds like a nice walk. It has been very warm here for the past few days. There have been some storms to deal with but I think the weekend is going to be super nice. We talked about going hiking for a while. I love hiking in the Spring and Summer.

It was beautiful here too - 70 degrees in Minnesota and sunny. I would go out for a walk but I'm super lazy feeling right now. Good for you for going on a walk though... I'm sure I have put on weight - I just haven't checked the scale in a while. I think I will start working out and NOT checking the scale, you know, just because that might depress me. . Good luck on your getting back into shape!

Hiya SGN, Very hot here too much to be able to walk for very long and enjoy it there are no Trees or bushes or any kind of shade so it does not make for having a nice walk really. We are into the Countryside but all the trees are over the other side of the Road and its a very busy Road too. Over the road there is quite a big Dairy Farm and they have a huge grove of shady trees which give me a healthy envy just a bit anyway where you could walk and walk around not for miles of course but you could walk under the shade do gentle exercise and be much cooler and better for it. Have been for long walks with pushchairs and all the shopping in the back of the pushchair lol but that was in a bigger town and there you can be more motivated you see people more trees believe it or not and more flowers. xxx

Walking by far is a safe and moderate way of exercising, and fun too. I used to do long walks in the morning, just going to the market back and forth and just enjoying the walk by looking at people, flowers, trees and all other things that would caught my attention. Sometimes i would just bring my camera with me and just take candid shots of people along the way, and it was really fun.

I would tell you that keep this as a habit on a daily basis, if possible. Normally, none of us won't get a great deal of 2 hrs. a day, but atleast 0.5 hrs. will be good enough to walk and will keep ourselves healthy. I hope you all enjoyed the trip and make it happen most often. Thank-s

I believe there's nothing better for your health make walking. Possibly in the open air and away from urban pollution. So I think you did very well to do this walk. To be honest I do not like lots walking, often for move use public transport or car. I understand that I should start to think differently in this aspect. And probably sooner or later I will! You must not, in my opinion, worry too much for pain, it is normal for your muscles "grumble" especially after so long that they do not work. Then when you get home, you take a bath, and you feel completely new!

Got your daughter a present for losing her homework? I love exercise and do it every morning. Up one two, down one two....then the other sock.
