Finding the motivation to get out there and walk is not always easy. Factor in a busy workday and 86 degree temperature with high humidity, and the motivation is close to non-existent. However, there are so many ways to keep the momentum going if you really try. Weekday hikes may be as simple as getting up early to get your walk in before the day begins, walking around a park during lunch, or committing to a walk in the evening in your neighborhood. No matter how you do it, do it. You are preparing for the more exciting hike planned for the weekend ahead.
Planning for our weekend hikes is made easy with a few great apps we love.
AllTrails offers downloadable maps of hiking and biking trails at the tip of your finger. You can save your favorites for easy access, record your hike, and share your photos and trails with friends or followers.
MapMyHike goes a little further. It not only tracks your hike/bike route, it also let’s you set exercise and nutrition goals, track the lifespan of your gear, purchase your favorite gear brands and items, and join challenges with friends or groups.
You won’t fall off the map with these apps!
Buen camino. . .

Hi Zoe, I have to say that the trails at Everglades National Park are some of my local favorites. These are more secluded and interesting. We can’t wait to go further North to the panhandle where the trails are very different from those in the southern part of the state. No matter where you decide to hike, it’s wonderful to be outdoors. You never know what you might find on the trail. That’s the part I love most. It’s an adventure!
