Time to take your better walk for a walk

 We have been concentrating on walking for a number of weeks - tweaking our technique. Do you remember the habit from each week? Here is a recap:-

  • Propelling forward from the hips, instead of flopping forward with quads and knees
  • Tread softly
  • Allow the arms to swing 
  • Embrace rucking by wearing a backpack.
Now let's put all that effort to good use. Let us plan to walk in a beautiful place.  A nature walk is restorative, but I also enjoy a city walk. 

We used to walk around the Kangaroo point cliffs on twilight.  It allows a view of the Botanic Gardens, the river with the watercraft quietly, gracefully moving hither and yon. There is a bonus - the sunset then the twilight and then the city lighting up for the night.

Now that is a walk.  

Remember your backpack and your water bottle.
