Habitude Three ~ Walking

and Incidental Exercise
I'm pretty sure this is a snap shot of me (in my dreams)
Alright, maybe in one of my lifetimes I would like it to look like me.
I think if I squint really hard, turn my head to the side, it could pass for the me I want to be :-)

Walking.
The underrated relative of running. The quiet achiever. Think Jonathan LaPaglia, younger brother of the more successful Anthony. Or one of the 'other' Baldwin brothers. Equally as productive and successful, without all the bells and whistles. Running might get all the glorified media attention; the four hour Saturday Iron Man broadcast, the full page newspaper ads about an upcoming Mother's Day Running Classic, the star studded attention at the olympics even. Pointing the finger at the glitz and glamour sprinters Usain Bolt and Florence Griffith-Joyner types. All the while poor underestimated walking gets mocked as a fake and funny looking sport. Yeap, that is walking. (but it is rather funny looking when done at a professional gait.)
