About an hour ago I fast-walked 1.1 mi to the grocery store in the 91° heat and then back home again with a backpack full of groceries. It's pretty much a steep incline all the way home. I drank over 32 oz of water up & back (refilled my bottle at the store). Hiking in the heat makes me smile.
And sweat. But mostly smile.
While I was at the grocery, they were giving free blood pressure and blood sugar tests to the shoppers. I took the tests and everything was normal range. I only did it because they were giving out free chocolate nutrition bars to those who took the tests.
That made me smile, too.
