Woos cross country walk this morning

A lovely walk Woo and still very green in your area.

 

Love those old Churches and grounds,..gates always make me stop and think ,..something reminded me to have a glass of wine as well,..helps one sleep.

 

Beautiful Woo. Can you walk from your home or do you have to drive. I know you live on a hill so is it just behind you? I love you sharing your walks.

 

Lovely reminder of England, thank you Woo.

 

I can't do either yet but I am working on it.

“Going uphill, you’re powering through gravity, while going downhill you’re controlling your momentum and utilizing more passive energy.”
Quote from MyFitnessPal

"Study looks at benefits of uphill, downhill walking. People who are glucose-intolerant are at higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Downhill walking improved their glucose tolerance by 8.2 percent, compared with a 4.5 percent improvement with uphill walking."

Wonderful views @wiseowl.
A man living near here always walks up hills backwards. He says it is easier. I tried it and it's true , but not being able to see where you're going is a drawback.
Coming down backwards is not easier though

I´ll try that Michael, the pub is at the bottom of a steep hill, and when I´m making my way home, people often step on my fingers.
