Outside Class Walks

As the weather warms up, I've found myself really enjoying long walks outside of class time. And when I say long walks, I am talking around 2-3 hours. I've done this twice so far. I did one 5 km walk, and another 10 km walk. On the 10 km walk I walked from our school, down 60th all the way down to Scott Road, then from there all the way up Scott Road past Strawberry Hill movie theatre. I also brought a friend along with me, whom I picked up on the way. This way we could encourage and motivate eachother, and could talk along the way. It was actually some what fun. We found a beautiful pond along the way, and we plan to go back and visit. Although this wasnt a run, and we were walking, it was still a good workout with some decent hills in there that tired up completely by the end. I think that I will start doing this more often. My goal is that when I do this by myself, I will run it, and do a bit of a different back. I feel this is a good way to stay active outside of PE class through out the spring and summer.
