My first year of Salsa Walking to Keep Me Fit for Salsa Dancing!

I've been working at my goal of walking 4 metric miles every day in an hour – around 7,500 daily steps – a marathon weekly – for 365 days now as exercise to keep me fit in lieu of going salsa dancing 6 nights a week which was my raison d'être until it was rudely interrupted by lockdown in March 2020.  From the beginning I wore headphones and walked to the beat of salsa music to make it more interesting and, because I‘ve always found walking hard work, this made my Read more [...]
