It’s been very cold lately and I really haven’t been able to do my morning walks like I have wanted to do. I have tried doing some simple exercises in our home, but it’s not quite the same. The exercises help me build up my energy level, but they don’t give me the long term benefits I get from walking.

Luckily, I have found a great alternative to walking outside. I am doing mall walking. I can just drive down to the mall and then do a walk through. Instead of doing it in the morning, I do it in the evening. No worries about it being too dark, too hot, or too cold. It’s nice and I get the great ambiance of a mall. I just put on my mp3 player and I am in walking bliss…

Now if I can just avoid Burger King on the way out…..
