3.1 miles walked today with my ancient (SO-out-of-date) cassette player!
I found the relic going through some boxes and just had to put in new batteries and see what I had on the tape. Great walking music!!! Gloria Estefan's "Get on Your Feet," among other songs, had me half-dancing down the street. I truly think I walked faster!
The only downside is that I can't hear anything else, which is a safety concern. While my player is decidedly outdated, I do have the most awesome earbuds that block out everything except the music. I walked facing the little traffic that comes through, but just about walked up on an off-leash dog lounging in someone's front yard! I couldn't tell if he barked or growled - NOT good - but we managed to abruptly cross the street and the dog didn't follow us (my 2 doggies were with me at that point).
So for the future, I might just use the music when I'm walking by myself and not walking my doggies. I need my sense of hearing the outside world if the doggies are along.
