This morning was the second day in a row I went on a 2.5 mile hike with the doggo. I have a few neat parks by me and this one has a stream with two small waterfalls.
Obviously it’s only the second day, but I hope to keep it up. This hilly 2.5 mile loop burns about 800 calories according to Alltrails, and I did manage to lose quite a bit of weight the last time I hiked regularly.
I highly recommend hiking, it can be as easy or as hard as you like, and it is a great way to get some quiet time to yourself if that is something you are craving.
Go do it! I was pushing it off for months and now I am waking up when I want to (before 5:30am), feeling better about myself, and I’ve shed a few pounds. Just take it slow, and I recommend AllTrails to keep track of adventures.
