Long walk

Nairobi, Kenya
May 12, 2021 3:15am CST
Hi everyone. I went for a long walk today morning after the rain ended. I've walked for almost two hours and it is refreshing. The last time I had done this was with my sister. Today she went to school and it will take months before I see her again. How is your day going on? What did you do?

Long walks are nice. I spent the day at an auction.

@wolfgirl569 did you walk instead? Driving for 10 mins is really playing

I did some household chores and eat breakfast and later will have my dancing exercise because I can`t go out for a walk today. It is really cold outside

Two hours walk is really a long walk and it is great to feel refreshed after such a long walk. I take regular morning walk these days but it is limited to half an hour. That keeps me refreshed.

@mildredtabitha Regular walk is the best cardiovascular exercise. Occasional walk may be helping also.

That's nice. I also like the half an hour walk. That can be done daily but two hour walk is done once in a while.

@msdivkar yes I agree. Over the years I discovered that I lose weight faster when I walk. It's a good exercise, better than the gym

The cold could not let me leave the house; It looks like a great thing to have a walk in this weather compared to sunny days. Glad you enjoyed

Thank you. I left home wearing a sweater and a jacket so I didn't feel cold. And I was wearing a mask. Sunny days are very hot to walk very long distance

@Missmwngi but this surgical facemask is preventing the fresh air. But the air was cold too so breathing in the mask made me feel better

It's a holiday today Thursday and I got no plans of going out. Covid is still around so best option is stay home. How I wish I can go back to walking again.

@florelway ooh that's okay. If that is so, then it means we have it here too but it is not a public holiday. It's only Muslims celebrating

Yeah. It's better to stay home and be safe than to risk it. Let's hope infections slow down so it would be a little safe to walk out for everyone. What is the name of the holiday?

@mildredtabitha it's Eid l Fitr. A muslim celebration. Though we are predominantly a Christian country we have the Muslims as one minority group.

Wow a long walk would be nice exercise but it's still too hot outside. Weather here is still unbearable.

But the hotness helps you sweat faster when you walk especially for those who want to lose weight. The sun did not come out today here. The sky is full of clouds

Thank you Enjoy your coffee. The other day, I saw a mylotters who posted about walking two hours non stop because of being stressed. I commented of how that's really long time to walk but today I set myself up for the challenge and walked. I had leg cramps because I walked for a long time

Oh! I miss my long morning walks and cycling exercise. Not sure when I would be able to do it again. And a walk after rain is always more enjoyable and refreshing I have not much planned for the day. I will go to kitchen to cook lunch in some time.

Enjoy your lunch after preparing it. I've never learned cycling. I hear it is fun to do it. I agree, very enjoyable. Is it because of lockdown that you haven't been able to do it?

@mildredtabitha Yes due to lockdown, all outdoor activities are restricted and as such it's not safe to leave home in current pandemic situation. Also I am recovering from the virus and so will take some time to get energy for such long walks. I enjoy cycling especially with my family. My workplace is nearby and before pandemic, I would someday cycle to my work instead of taking my car
