Walking by yourself has a freedom of spirit. There is spontaneity in each step. How I need and enjoy walking solo.




6 AM start to your day – way to go Linda. The bank building is spectacular. Glad you are enjoying solo! I just did 10 today – too tired out after working in the garden all day.
Sincerely,
Bill

5:00am start is your usual schedule! I’m learning my limits. It’s not so much the distance but being able to adjust as the temperature climbs or the day gets long. Breaks are vital. I find some café and have a drink while recharging the phone during the day. Keep yoga class alive while I’m gone. ~linda
