Well, I started my nordic walking today. The poles I got are LEKI SPIN. I went to the track that they have at Vo-tech but before I got there there was a big No Trespassing sign so I walked down to walmart and caught a bus over to the mall and when I got there I walked around it. It was the first go so I was doing a lot of figuring and experimenting. I could tell afterwords that it was and OK workout.

That's good. Glad that you found a good place for a workout. Our mall allows people to come in early to exercise as well. It's rather neat.

The mall is surrounded by big parking lots and there are other stores there that are not part of the mall with big parking lots so its a very big place to walk around. When you are doing it right yoou can really feel the power.

Well I went Nordic Walking today. I think that its my 3rd time around the mall. I walked further and for a longer amount of time then before. You can really feel that it is a workout. When I was done my sweatshirt was saturated.

I'll be leaving soon to go Nordic Walking on this fine day. Burrr... It was 27 when I got up. Its to be sunny and go to 50. I have been going longer and further each time. Today I am going to add another parking lot. I have been finding interresting plants each time also. Last time I found some highbush cranberries.

Today I actually added 2 1/2 parking lots ;D I got all sweaty but it didn't kick my butt as bad as before. The yarrow is still blooming. There is a lot of yarrow there.
