I had THE best walk yesterday! In all my life I never would have thought I'd say that. I am so not "outdoorsy" and I'd rather sweat indoors to an exercise video than to go out for a walk. I think it was the perfect combination:
1. Weather - Perfect! Not too hot not too cold. I could wear my zip up sweatshirt without having to tie it 'round my waist on the way back.
2. Good walking shoes. New Balance.
3. BEAUTIFUL scenery! The hills were green, the trees were blooming pink and white and the lake was gorgeous!
4. Fresh air. What's that? I'm usually in my car all day driving from lesson to lesson.
5. Sunshine. Now typically I'm a big fan of cloudy, rainy weather but I think my body and emotions needed a good case of the sun.
6. iPod. This fit neatly inside my deep pockets.
7. Best walking tunes ever: Barenaked Ladies! They're a little difficult to jam to or do a major workout to, but for walking they are PERFECTION!
Probably the best 40 minute walk I've ever taken in my life!

How fun! I too would rather walk on a treadmill then outside, but you made it sound so wonderful!
I love that you talked about your outfit because, for me, that can make or break a good workout.
Seriously. I wish I were kidding, but I'm not.
