Come rain, come snow, or shine,
this neighborhood is mine.
I have to take my walk;
you'll see me on your block.
My doctor said I had to lose some weight,
so walking's how I chose to get it done.
Some days are good, some fair, but none are great.
It can be pleasant, but don't call it fun.
Thanks, Kim, for the photo, but it makes me think: 'Did my pal Kim lose five of those pounds in his left lower leg! ! ! ? ' I think shadows are partly the answer. Good for U, old-timer. : ))
Bri, the photo is not of me; just some picture I found on the internet. I never wear shorts when hiking in the mountains, always long pants to avoid scratches.
An excellent and Inspiring poem for all to improve our health! .. Endless 10'S And Stars! ..+++++++++++++++++++++
And it's a much better way to see the beauty that surrounds, than flying by in a car! .. : )
Awesome! .. Walking is a wonderful way to help health! .. One step at a time! ...
I had to buy a shorter belt the other day. Didn't want to punch any more holes in the old one!
I have now walked 5 miles every day for the last 20 days. I would love to sleep in my own bed tonight, but I'm 100 miles from home!

It seems strange to read about your pain during walking, and then have you say that you 'feel better...time.' In my forties I consulted with doctors about a sudden back pain while showering. The pain did not persist and there was no surgery, but...(cont.)
I feel better in general, NOT while I'm walking.
