Walking Your Stress Away

Walking is a way to relieve stress and get exercise at the same time.  Often I go to the Adams Community Park to walk.  The park has a paved trail that is 1.2 miles long.  I usually walk it twice--first one way then I turn around and walk in the other direction.  It winds through fields and woods and has 80 degree hills to climb.  A great workout plus awesome scenery.  Most times you will have chipmonks or squirrels scurrying in front of you.  You will see herds of deer grazing in the fields.  Last year I came across a deer that stood no more than 15 feet from me and he just stood there looking at me.  It was awesome.  Another great feature about this trail is that you can share this trail with your best friend--your dog.  The trail seems to be a favorite place for man and beast alike or woman and protector/companion for that matter.  When you feel stressed, try taking a walk and feel the stress melt away from you.
