Just shop at Wamart? I always seem to walk a few miles every time I go there. I'm lucky to get a cart with four wheels, with less then two of them square. I often get a cart that pushes in a big circle, and has a squawky bearing. After a trip to town I make a new shopping list starting with what I had on a list, and still managed to forget to buy I could blame some of that on bein' old, but I don't have to tell you folks that.

Funny you should post that. I didn't get on my treadmill today, but I did go to Wally's place to pick up an order.
Big signs in parking lot "To Pickup". Parked and walked over there, halfway down the building. "No sir, Pickup is inside the main entrance."
Inside the main entrance is a sign, "Pickup at the Rear of the Store." Walk all the way to the rear. Sign there says, "Pickup is at the FRONT of the store, near the grocery entrance."
Have now walked twice the length of the store, plus the depth. Told a store employee about the confusion and the lying signs. Got a shrug.
Then looked all over the Electronics Dept for an item the website said was in stock at that store. Nope.
Walked back to my car. Have now totaled much of what I would have walked on the treadmill. Whataya know? WalMart keeps ya fit!

12 ounce curls for me.
The best part is that they get lighter the more you do.

I'm in the gym 4-5 days /week. I hate WalMart and try not to go there at all.
The lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part!

I try and walk as much outside as I can. Sometimes it's all I want to do, sometimes it's not. Walking at Walmart can be like going through an obstacle course here, dodging all the 400 pound Black women on the motorized carts.

When someone comments that I must work out I answer... nope, I just work. The last 40 years I've worked in the concrete trade.
!0 years ago I was in the hospital for the first time, broke my leg on an elk hunt. broke it bad so was in the hospital 3 days. I woman Dr I hadn't seen before comes in with a clipboard... asks if I'm 52... yep... are you a professional athlete... nope... Hmmm, saw your charts and had to come see for myself.
Wife wasn't impressed when I told her.
6 years later I had a kidney stone, finally told the wife to take me to ER... young nurse takes my vitals, comes back and asks... how old are you... 58... are you a professional athlete... nope... wife standing there gives me the stink eye... I just shrugged.

I biked every day for 12 miles of racing from age 50 to 65. At 65 I switched to 2 miles of hiking every day.... just as sweaty, without the panting.
