A cliche? Maybe. But here at the GPL it's a fact! If you've been reading the paper you know that the GPL has been closed to the public due to extensive leaks in the roof and water damage. The rain has definitely put a crimp in library operations but has it had an effect on you and your walking program?
It sure is easy to blow off a walk when it's raining, or looks like it may rain, or is humid and will wreck your hair, or when...well, you get the picture. But there are plenty of alternatives! The gym, treadmills, indoor walking DVD's or mall walking (more on that later). The point is to get up and get moving!
The library has moved to a satellite location at the Gadsden Mall and I am amazed at the number of mall walkers we have here. They're out in the morning before the stores open (mall management is terrific and allows folks in early), they're there in the evening, literally all day. And guess what? I'm joining their ranks! Rain - bring it. Humidity - no problem. Too hot - not in here!
We are excited to be in our new, temporary digs and hope to get some of our mall workers to join us on our Walk Across Alabama. I hope you'll come see us and take a lap or two around the mall with us. I'll be the one trying to power walk past the cookie shop!
Stay Healthy,
Tami
