Encouragement to go for a walk​

I like walking but only to places. Just walking for exercise is boring but a must do. I download an audio book and ONLY permit myself listen to it when I'm walking, Sooooo if I want to find out what happens next I have to keep walking. Works for me!

A mate of mine once said playing golf spoiled a good walk, but I could walk much farther zig zagging my way around a golf course. lol

@Evol P I agree. I used to get very bored walking but now I am really into Podcasts so I take myself on Podcast Walks! Must be very similar to Audio Book walks because you get lost in a story or topic and you almost forget you're walking around!

@Vinylted haha! I should be very careful, I always walk around the area and I live near the beach, so should certainly be careful around cliffs

Honestly, getting out for a couple of walks per day has been one of the main things keeping me (relatively) sane during lockdown.

@Evol P I also do the podcast/audiobook thing!

Sounds like a great idea for people who like listening to books. I love reading a book, I like the feel of holding a book, turning the pages, getting cranky when the bookmark falls out but you did remind me that I do have a set of those ear phones and can listen to music while I walk. Haven't used them for a long time. It may just be the thing to get me going. Thanks Evol P
