The first thing I did this morning was put on walking clothes and get ready to head outside. It was an absolutely beautiful morning! Because I’ve been lacking motivation lately, I opted to take it easy in the neighborhood.

One of the things I let slide when I’m training for distance is form. I’ve taken a couple of racewalking clinics, yet I still do not feel as if I racewalk. Today I was not going to worry about speed or distance, just focus on planting my heel and rolling my foot all the way through.

It’s been a while since I’ve worked on form, and my left shin insisted on reminding me for about 20 of the 30 min. I was out. After the shin finally loosened I felt great!

I have had a lot of energy all day and I know it was from the morning walk. I will do my best to keep it up!
