NYC Apollo

It’s amazing what a little foot power can do. For one it reduces my carbon foot print on this city and this world. During rush hour, it’s almost as fast as grabbing a cab provided you don’t need to go more than a mile or so.

And finally it’s been doing good for my weight. I can’t help but think everytime I hear another report about our growing obesity problem that a bit more walking would go a long way to slimming us all down.

When I walk this great city, I feel more in touch with it. I ’see’ it better for what it is - the good and the bad. So the next time you have a short or moderate trip to make, make it on foot.
