It all started 6 days ago while going on errands. In my part of the country days had been hot hot hot. But nights are way cold. Had to endure the sun to get my errands done. And they all called for me to take 2 to 3 jeepney rides just to get from point A to point B. You know, the traffic system. In one stroke of genius I decided to walk one particular route. I wasn't dressed appropriately for that, mind you, but I did walk. Good thing I had a bottle of water with me. Took me 30 minutes. Saved me from 3 dizzying rides on the jeepney and 80 pesos worth of cab ride!!! And my lungs felt fine. Brisk walking. I used to brisk/fitness walk while I was pregnant. And there!!! After all those brainstorming moments of what form of exercise to use (I originally wanted to go back to swimming, good for the lungs) I discovered fitness walking again!!!
Yessiree armed with 115 songs in my ipod, rubber shoes, hat and water, I'M OFF!!!
But when to do it? One criteria I had always been failing at in choosing the any exercise was the length of time it was going to take me away from my kids. When your kids go to school, you would want to spend the time they are home with them. And another light bulb moment commenced! HAHAHAHA!
I will WALK all the way from the house to the school!!!
YES!!!
I had been at it for 4 days now and I feel GOOD! I have not been one to do running coz it makes my brain go up and down. Really. HAHAHAHA...
So my dear friends, here's another way to fitness: WALKING.
The route is easy, has uphill and downhill sections, have sidewalks all the way and very public!
Perfect!!!
So if you see me walking briskly past you with the black sling bag and white cap, say HI!!! hehehe
