The remarkable science of walking's feel-good effects

3. It helps me. It's rough right now recovering from a knee replacement, but I'll be back out there

soon.

I wasn't expecting to get in until March. I had just bought more cold weather gear so I could walk comfortably in about as cold of weather as we ever get. It's here now and I can't go! I suspect it's not the end of it, so I'll get to make use of my new stuff soon.

I'm lucky that right out my door is and older residential area near the high school and a nice community college. I have three parks in my walking range too and big trees everywhere with lots of birds and squirrels.

Even days where I think I don't feel like going and blow it off, I get bored and out I go. I was able to still walk pretty well on my worn-out knee, probably partly because of what explained in the article. I should be feeling really good in a couple weeks.
