Beat sagging face blues by walking!
On Sunday I had the exquisite pleasure of lounging the day away at a Muskoka cottage, replete with requisite trashy magazines.
Reading one of the recent issues of InStyle, I learned that running is not recommended because its jarring action breaks down the collagen that keeps the face from sagging! According to the article, walking will avoid this collagen breakdown.
This is not the first time I've heard this theory. My original source was a shop-keeper who, once she heard about all the walking I do, proclaimed that walking is the best exercise since "all runners look terrible with their droopy faces"!
I'm not sure that InStyle is a more reputable source of information than that shop-keeper, but it might be worth investigating further.
In the mean time, since we know what a great workout walking can be, why risk the sad, saggy face of a runner?

And just when I was thinking of trying some running to improve my walking.....
Running may improve your walking. For sure learning good walking technique and the resulting muscle tone will help runners! Al runners should learn to power walk for cross-training!
