Sept 12 is the launch date for CUNY Steptember Challenge.
I jumped right into it, because I regularly walk 4-5 miles a day, and it will be interesting to carry my phone consistently and see how far I really do walk. Walking is for me a primary wellness practice. I learn and grow emotionally and spiritually while putting one foot in front of the other. Often when I get to wherever I am going, I have insights that I need to write down. I also think that it keeps me as well as I can be. All my body systems respond to the rhythm of the road. I require fresh air and sunshine.
It’s also transportation. A short list of places I go in my hometown (which is why it takes six months to wear shoes out):
- The Diner
- Church
- The Public Library
- The Neighborhood Drugstore
- The Grocery Store
- The Train Station
- The Farmers Market
- The Post Office
- Doctor’s Office
So? I recommend walking.
