Encouragement to get out and walk or run...


It’s great to go for a long walk or jog outside on a cool, sunny day. It is also great to get out when it is hot, cold or even rainy! We don't need to limit ourselves to getting fresh air and vitamin D only to days where the weather is perfect. If it is the heat of summer, we can get up early or go for a nighttime walk if the sun is too hot. If it is too cold to walk in a t-shirt and shorts, bundle up. We all know, there is nothing like jogging in the rain...so, don't let a little bit of water keep you from exercise!

Lake Lynn is my favorite place to go for a walk or run. I used to live right on the lake and was able to simply step outside and walk or run around the lake any time I wanted to!

It is located at: 7921 Ray Road, Raleigh, NC 27613. The view of the lake any time of year is spectacular. If you walk around the lake one time, you will walk approximately 2.5 miles. There is also a place to throw a frisbee or ball with your dog or feed the ducks with your kids.

Pack up some snacks and jogging stroller for your child / children to get them outside while you get your exercise. Don't let anything stop you from your exercise. Make the best of your situation and get out there!

I am not suggesting you do anything I would not do. If you don't have the time to drive to the lake, run through your neighborhood.
