Set-up your podcasts

Hi there, 

I decided to maximise my walks by listening to podcasts. I have never really listened to many podcasts so this will be a new experience. 

I literally typed podcast into YouTube’s search engine and found a heap to add to my walking playlist. The good news is they are about an hour long which is what I am aiming to walk.  

Normally I would listen to music but I am keen to give it a go. It may be tricky when I am close to a lot of traffic due to the noise but we shall see. 

Let’s go!

Testing, testing day two

  Image via:  https://theincmagazine.com/the-history-of-10000-steps/ When you first set out to exercise day one is fully pumped, yet it’s what comes next which is most important.  Day two. I thought I would go for a walk for an hour and I assumed in that time I would walk 10,000 steps. Because yesterday I went for a longer walk and reached 10,000 steps…. Oooh, I just worked it out. This makes sense now. After my walk today, I got home, all proud of myself. I checked my step counter and I had done 6,000 steps. I was disappointed and I didn’t want to go back out for a second walk.  But as I said above, I just realised why an hour didn’t give me the result I was seeking. Because yesterday I went for an hour and twenty minute walk which gave me the 10,000 steps not an hour. Oh silly me. Oh well.  Anyway, what I wanted to say was, did I achieve my goal when I said I wanted to walk 10,000 steps a day and I only walked 6,000 steps?  The answer is yes. Here is why....

I bought a treadmill

: :Image sourced via https://www.google.com/amp/s/languagetool.org/insights/post/pros-and-cons-meaning/amp/ have to say, I stopped walking for a couple of weeks due to swooping of birds and the weather and put on weight. I knew I had to do something so I could walk again.  So I bought myself a treadmill. I placed it in front of my TV and have been walking every day on the treadmill.  There are huge advantages for having a treadmill, such as: If it’s dark outside you can walk inside.  If it’s raining outside, you can walk anyway. You can watch your favourite TV shows and walk.  You can go on your treadmill at any time of day or night.  There are also some disadvantages:  Treadmills are bulky. They are sort of, in the way and are heavy to move out of the way, but not impossible.  For some reason I walk less on a treadmill than if I was walking around outside. At the beginning my legs hurt after the treadmill and I also felt a bit dizzy but after a week t...

Would you walk on your weekend?

Image
  Image via:  https://becomenomad.com/using-your-weekends-to-explore/ Good morning walkers, So this morning I decided it’s the weekend and I am going to be up early. I was have a full day planned so I thought I could either not go for a walk today or do it first thing in the morning before my day began.  And that’s what I did. Today I woke up at six in the morning and was out walking by 6:45. I did check the amount of steps around 7am, which was about 2,000. I really wanted to finish hahaha but I kept going.  I kept going and even walked further forward so I knew it would take longer to get back. Then when I decided it was time to turn around, I didn’t just walk straight back (as much as I wanted to), I went down a hill and around the block and even when there were two sections I could have diverted home quicker, I decided to keep going the long way home.  I knew I wouldn’t make 10,000 steps. I really didn’t think I would make 5,000 steps. Especially when the de...
