A Running Doc’s Life: Get Out and Move!

The season is changing, and this is an especially good time to get out and enjoy the colors, and scenery. If you go out biking, walking, running, just pay attention to your surroundings, and really look. Before you know it, you have been out exercising, but have lost track of time because you have been watching the colors, and the change of the season without even realizing it.

If you use the trail, go if you can in conjunction with the sunrise, and/or later in the evening to catch the sunset. You won’t be sorry. Here are some examples of how the trail looks.

Now if you go out by the Lake, anywhere, you can get in some breath taking views. This is what makes exercising outside so enjoyable. Your mind just gets lost on all of the problems from that day, or if you go early in the morning, it helps set the tone for the day by getting you ready for it. These are a few examples of what I am talking about.

Unless you are looking, you will miss it. Take it all in. Enjoy the activities outside for as long as we can. We are in October, and that snow is around the corner. Be outside while you can.

And it makes it even better if you are out doing the exercise with somebody else! Time really goes by fast then. So what are you waiting for? This weather is not going to stay like this forever. Don’t be shut out! Get outside before the time comes when we are stuck inside. We have been inside way too much this last 1 1/2 years already due to the pandemic. Get outside now! Literally strive to survive. Just do it! You won’t regret it. Keep moving everybody!
