It's All About Walking!

more good for an unhappy but otherwise healthy
adult than all the medicine and psychology in the world. Paul Dudley

Hiking is the best workout! You can hike for three
hours and not even realize you're working out. And, hiking alone lets
me have some time to myself. Jamie Luner

disappoint those little faces. Wendie Malick

into you as
sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into
you,
and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.

Jokes that go over like a lead balloon
Last year I entered the New York City Marathon. The race started and immediately
I was the last of the runners. It was embarrassing. The guy who was in front of
me,
second to last, was making fun of me. He said, "Hey
buddy, how does it feel to be last?"
I replied: "Do you want to know?" and I
dropped out.
We work out too much. We waste time. A friend of mine runs
marathons.
He always talks about this "runner's high." But he has to go 26 miles
for it.
That's why I smoke and drink. I get the same feeling from a flight of stairs.

(Oh Well It’s Monday)
You know it is time to resume running when:
* You try to do a few pushups and discover that
certain body parts refuse to leave the floor.
* Your children look through your wedding album
and want to know who mom's first husband was.
* You get winded just saying the words "10
kilometer run".
* You analyze your body honestly and decide
what you should develop first is your sense of humor.
* You step on a talking scale and it says, "Come
back when you are alone"
In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks. John
Muir
Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Every day I walk myself into a
state of well-being and walk away from every illness. I have walked myself
into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one
cannot walk away from it. Soren Kierkegaard
Walks. The body advances,
while the mind flutters around it like a bird. Jules Renard
You need special shoes for hiking - and a bit of a special soul as well. Bäche
I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think,
all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read and all the
friends I want to see. John Burroughs
The civilized man has built a coach,
but has lost the use of his feet. Ralph Waldo Emerson
What
They Said
Deciding to take up jogging, the man was astounded by the wide selection of
jogging shoes available at the local sports shoe store. While trying
on a basic pair of jogging shoe, he noticed a minor feature and asked the
clerk:
"What is this little pocket thing here on the side
for?"
And the clerk: "Oh, that's to carry spare change so
you can call your wife to
come pick you up when you've jogged too far."
There is this to be said for walking:
It's the one mode of human locomotion by which a man proceeds on his own
two feet, upright, erect, as a man should be, not squatting on his rear
haunches like a frog. Edward Abbey
