But I do intend to walk on the days I don't swim <br />Although right now I have my granddaughter on those days and she keeps me on my toes! <br />Too bad my Fitbit doesn't clock the swimming unless I remember to set it before I put it in my bag.

I love walking and I think it is great exercise. I don't care what any article says, a mile, whether it takes you 6 minutes or 16 minutes, is still a mile. <br />One thing, though, as a dance teacher, I know shoes are paramount. I wouldn't have let a student show up in my class en pointe unless her shoes were properly fitted by a professional, and I feel the same way about trainers. Maybe go to a store which specializes in running attire, and get them to fit you for a pair? The fittings should be free, but some stores require an appointment. Anmong other things, they should have a treadmill you walk on which sends a computer generated image of your foot showing where your pressure points are, where you land the heaviest, etc., then they find the shoe that is designed to support your foot. While these stores tend to have very high prices, as they get the most recent models, once you know the brand/model, you can order or buy them from a cheaper source. <br /><br /><br />Meg B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09871105973774159424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-67151572115660696502017-08-15T08:24:49.773-04:002017-08-15T08:24:49.773-04:00I space my walking during the day as well.

I wonder if that means I need to walk further????<br /><br />God bless.Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16051183778965359500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-16425285800816878832017-08-15T02:43:20.740-04:002017-08-15T02:43:20.740-04:00Gill!
