Walking is the Perfect Exercise For Mind And Body

Out here in Maple Valley, Wa. we are fortunate to have an abundance of walking trails. The one I use most often is the Lake Wilderness trail. It runs around Lake Wildnerness up to the Cedar River Trail and really offers a beautiful view of the lake. But you can find a place to walk no matter where you live. Whether you live in the city, suburbs, or country, you can always find a place to walk, and find your own enjoyment.

I've lived in the city most of my life, and always found a place to walk. I remember many times walking with a childhood friend Bob across town, from West Baltimore to East, a hike of about 10 miles, and walking through the city had it's own pleasures and challenges, but we survived and have good memories of those days.

Walking is, I believe, the great all around exercise. It cost's nothing, just about anyone can do it to some degree, and it's good not just for the body, but for the soul as well. Sometimes when I walk, I do it just for the exercise, and to get out of the house. Other times, I've walked literally for hours when there's some pressing problem or concern that has troubled me, and I am oftentimes able to work through the problem during my walk.

So, if you're not in the habit, get out, take a walk today. You'll feel better, and you just may notice things that you haven't seen in years.
