alking is such a great form of exercise. It will
help to keep you healthy and fit for life. However, some people seem to forget
about their walking program for one reason or another when they go on vacation.
Here are some tips to help you keep walking while you are on vacation.
Actually, walking on vacation is great. You can
explore areas that you may not go to if you were not walking. I've found great
restaurants that are off the beaten path that I would not have found if I was
not out exercising. It will also help you to feel not as guilty with the extra
eating that usually happens during a vacation.
You should talk with your family and let them
know that you are keeping up with your walking while you are on vacation. They
will appreciate the fact that you are keeping up with your program and they may
even want to join you. Letting them know in the beginning that you are going to
still exercise will help to not have problems later.
If you are on a trip (whether for business or
pleasure) you may find that you are in an area that you are unsure of. Ask the
desk at your hotel for safe walking paths. You are not the only one that has
asked them that - and they are usually prepared with a map. They will also tell
you of areas to stay away from. If you are still feeling uneasy - hit the
treadmill in the hotel's fitness center to get your walking done.
Make sure that you walk at the same time each
day. If you are on a business trip - the best thing is to get up early and get
it done before the first meeting. This way you will not worry about getting it
done later - especially when you may be joining your colleagues later in the
evening. If you are on vacation, early morning may also be better. I always run
first thing so that I can spend the rest of the day with my hubby and know that
my exercise is done.
Getting your walking done while you are out of
town doesn't have to be a challenge. It may take some planning on your part -
but it can be done. And, it will be much better to keep up with your walking
program so that you don't have to work back into it when you get back home.
