Welcome to Walking Is Fitness, a daily 10 minute podcast designed to provide you with a little added motivation to get out the door, take the walk, and more importantly, to keep going, to build a life-changing walking habit.
Today's 10-minute walk starts right after this. Welcome to day seven of the 30-day walking challenge. Linda says I'm going to take this, meaning the 30-day walking challenge. I'm going to take this to my weight loss support group and challenge them to do the challenge. Except We won't be able to start on the first of this month because well the first of this month has already come and gone. But we can start on the day that I challenge them. Thanks for the tracker. Thank you, Linda. And that's really the beautiful part of this 30-day challenge. If you're just tuning in, or or maybe you've been listening, but you haven't decided yet to do the challenge, it's not too late. You can start any day of the month.
You know, I think we have this New Year's Day syndrome thing going that if we don't start the goals on January 1, They don't count. It's too late. We've missed that opportunity. Well, the tracker is not specifically dated June 1st through June 30th, so you can start whenever you want. And the free trackers are still available. And there's a link in the show notes for this episode if you would like to get started. Joe sent this email. Hello, I'm enjoying the 30-day 10-minute challenge. So, the 30-day walking challenge. Thanks for doing this. I have faced the challenge of heart failure at age 71. Doctors don't know how it happened, but I faced it head-on, and I'm happy to report that after one year of regular medication and lots of walking, I brought my heart health back to a normal.
Yeah. Congratulations, Joe. Joe continues on. The doctor said the medication did the lion's share of the work, but I also believe That my daily 30 to 60 minute walks had something to do with the recovery. After all, the heart is a muscle. Enjoying your YouTube channel, please keep it up. You're helping more people than you'll ever know. Joe, thank you for that encouragement. That email actually arrived when I needed to hear that encouragement, so I'm grateful for you, Joe. has bought Walking as Fitness a coffee. These are virtual coffees except I actually use it for coffee. So I go to a coffee shop on Monday, so I'll be going tomorrow. And that's where I sit down and plan, kind of loosely plan a week's worth of episodes, the topics, find some comments.
you know just pull it together and I enjoy coffee while I'm doing that. So if you would like to support walking as fitness, buy me a coffee. So I can use it as I'm planning the episode. There's a link in the show notes for that. So Carol bought a coffee and then listed seven benefits of walking, except she did it as an acronym.
