A Fable

Quick and light storyline tonight ~

Still walking, nearly daily. Oh so pretty ~

our tennies buried beneath the leaves

Remember the tortoise and the hare?



The hare needs to be quickening her pace on these walks ~




Walking with Hubby is not doing me  her the hare any favors.  :-)



The tortoise only has the stamina and energy to maintain a specific pace. Hare on the other hand has been lallygagging a bit too much. She used to keep a brisk pace. She used to cover hilly terrain with little exertion. She used to have a smaller behind!



At the current slow pace, lovely photos are taken and conversation with Tortoise are possible. Yet Hare is losing the race. A race of time and the goal of a healthier lifestyle.


The lesson to be learned from this fable is : slow and steady relates to winning of the race -

NOT TO BE MISTAKEN FOR,  SLOW (walking) AND STEADY (eating)  MEAN INCREASE IN GIRTH!

I've got this nagging feeling that I'll be one of the millions with a New Years resolution that begins with DIET, and ends with exercise!!
