Walking is a great way to exercise, but if you have to walk in the frigid temperatures then walking outside becomes a chore.  You can always walk on a treadmill in your house but that gets redundant and boring and you're more than likely not to walk if that is your option.

Luckily Amarillo has some options for walking indoors.

Exercise is important and walking can do wonders for your well-being

According to the Mayo Clinic, walking can help maintain weight, help lose body fat, and help manage conditions like heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, and more.  It is also a great mood enhancer and can help with memory and sleep.  If you're struggling with balance and coordination it can also help you get centered.

Plus the great thing about walking is it reduces stress, and we all could use a little stress relief.  Grab your walking shoes and head to one of these amazing indoor tracks.

Relive 1980s Elementary School Gym Class

If you are a Generation X or Millenial like me, you likely have some strong memories of gym class. Either you loved it or hated it. I made some fun memories and built character and muscle, but I'm really glad I never have to go back and face some of these things again! And I know my teachers did their best to make gym enjoyable and teach us life skills. They succeeded - this is all in good fun. And, hopefully, future generations will get to thoroughly enjoy some of these as much as I did!
