Weighted Vest and Audiobooks

I broke my toe this summer.

It slowed me down a bit, but I’m on the comeback now.

Do not suggest a parent-kid softball game when no opponent shows up to play your daughter’s team and then play catcher with no gear.  One fast pitch straight to my big toe took me out.

I’m finally walking and running again.

I got a weighted vest last year and have really enjoyed it.

I went with this 16-pounder you can get here.

I like how it makes me work harder when I strap it on - walk faster, breathe deeper.

It definitely gets me huffing.

I’m still listening to audiobooks when I’m out walking.

Here are a few of my latest listens.

I like how I feel after a weighted vest walk and little audio book time.

I’m still striving for at least 30 minutes of movement a day and there is really no excuse for not being able to walk. Get outside people. You’ll feel better.
