Goals of this Blog

I would like to see this blog become a forum for people to share their experiences with various types of exercise.  Maintaining a regular exercise regimen can be challenging.  All of us have demands on our time that seem to impose restrictions.  Also the climate here in South Dakota - or any place where temperature extremes abound - present particular obstacles.  None of this is insurmountable and we can all help each other find ways to work with the realities of our lives.  What works for you?  What have you tried that did not work and why?  What do you need assistance or suggestions with that others might be able to help you with?  My own experiences include trial and error in many different situations which I will be happy to share.  My hope is that we can all encourage each other to keep up the good work!

  2. The Runner's Shop in Rapid City 0n 41 East Omaha, is the Primo place to get shoes for walking, running, and any season. They watch you walking or running and show you what shoe works best for your feet, weight and gait. They also sponsor a lot of the charity walks and races in the Black Hills, and give discounts to kids in school sports. The "running" shoes you see in Target and other stores are all built on the same generic last, and you are setting yourself up for an uncomfortable ride or injury which could discourage you from exercising,especially if you're just beginning. Speaking from experience! Keep Moving!
