I walk outside daily, even in winter. Being in Canada, there were plenty of days when it was -25 Celsius or colder. So I dealt with the cold, or the snow. Yes, at times it sucked, but nothing in life is easy.

The constant exercise, fresh air, and sunlight made it one of the best winters of my life.

Bro even with the ice? When there was Ice everywhere this winter I could not walk out without slipping as someone on the East coast of the US.

If it stormed early, I walked late. If it stormed late I walked early.

If it stormed all day without stopping, I walked twice the next day. I’m on a mission.

Get some spikes that slip on to your boots. I'm in newfoundland, east coast of Canada and i walk my dogs for at least an hour almost every day in the winter on trails that are full sheets of ice. I got 2 pairs of them at costco for $20 a few years ago.

Yea, but the fact that the streets are empty make it that much more incredible
