rico12 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Wow. I haven't even been on here in 2 months. I've missed it. Anyway, now that the weather is super nice, I want to try walking/hiking more. Problem is, there's isn't much around my area in the way of forests that I can get to by walking. I'd have to drive to get there. Any suggestions on what I'd need to walk/hike in a city setting? Like good shoes or something? I know nothing really. haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest comfortable shoes (i wear newbalance) and some water, perhaps a cliff bar if your walking for very long. I love to walk and sometimes i jsut loose myself in it. The great thing about the city is that if you are want for anything it can be walked to. So i would say start small check out sidestreets you have never gone down before, get an idea of what you are missing. try this place out as well: http://walkscore.com It will let you know what is within a 3 mile distance. Basically dress comfortably and cooly. if it is hot use sunscreen. comfortable shoes and alternate between walks with a purpose or walks that are aimless. Goodluck.
