exercise

Fiumicino, Italy

with a road trip coming up three weeks from today, decided to increase the daily exercise regime and build up the leg muscles...10 km (6.2 miles) walks seem a good idea...so as not to overdo it though, will divide that into 1/2 km walks each day, and after 20 days will have covered 10 km...hopefully the cautious approach pays off...however, a friend tells me this will prove a less than effective plan, so may have to increase the effort...somewhat that is

as for the location here, this is where the Tevere (Tiber) flows into the Tyrrhenian Sea at Fiumicino, immediately west of Roma (Rome)

A great place for a stroll. I like how he matches the other colors in the scene. Well captured. V

Lovely image from your walk.

Being fit is always a plus when on a trip...nice composition to illustrate your point...V

Even 1/2km is worth it if you take along your camera.

A very nice candid on this sunny day!

I like your plan but 1/2 kilometer/day seems so few :)
A nice image to illustrate...Horizon not so far. V.

A charming place to get your exercise, though! V

Keep it up,

Really nice image. I've flown in and out of the airport there many times but never saw the surrounding area. It's always good to get in shape before you travel. V

The guy in the photo doesn't look like he has far to walk, although he does look determined. Always feels good to get in shape for a trip.

Don't overdo the walking thing! Nice composition

That's a huge line tied around that big bollard. Seems like some pretty good size boats could come in here. The walking sounds like a good idea to get ready for your trip. We averaged about 5 1/2 miles a day while we were gone. We needed a vacation from our vacation when we got back. I like the perspective here.

when I began to read I thought you were talking of 10 kms. EACH day....v.

Sounds like a good plan for the trip, and a great capture, although I doubt that guy is walking 10 kilometers!

Nice perspective and timing. Great idea to walk. Lately I am averaging about 50 miles a week. Love walking, especially early in the morning.
