The best shoe for your foot is actually one with minimum cushioning and that's flexible at the front. Why? When your foot hits the ground, it's looking for a hard surface. Too much padding and it'll strike the ground much harder than it should to find the surface it's looking for. In short, it'll seek out an otherwise avoidable injury. And while you may be tempted to shovel out that wad of cash for those nice shoes, research says you shouldn't. Low and medium-cost shoes actually are just as good, if not better, when it comes to comfort and performance. It is very important to find a flat, solid ground for your walk or you will tire easily or worse, get injured. If you don't know where to go, go to the nearest trail, school, park, nature center, or even mall, when shoppers are few. Trails are great for getting some fresh air and not having to worry about crossing streets and traffic. But if you live in an area that's cold half of the year, you'll need to walk somewhere inside. In that case, malls (they generally open for walkers earlier) and indoor gyms are your best bet. Sometimes a good, quiet walk is nice for your mood, but other times you'll need some swift beats to keep your legs moving. Bring whatever music device you own, some headphones, and see how it keeps you going. Make sure the music is energetic and lifts you up the right tunes can get you in the zone. If you're feeling particularly diligent, create a playlist of songs that fall under 75-130 BPM. This will be your sweet spot that you want to stay jiving to. And if you follow their beat, some will bring you up and some will bring you back down, but you'll always be moving swiftly. There's little better than someone else gallivanting along at your side to keep you going you don't want to be left in their dust, do you? In addition to helping you set a pace and stick to it, if you're in shape enough, you could hold a conversation. And if you can't, you can set of goal of being able and watch your progress develop. Try going with a friend only once in a while, too, to mix it up. You may find that sometimes a solitary walk is more what you're in the mood for. And bring a friend along once in a while can make it exciting, as opposed to part of your normal, everyday routine. In order to keep this healthy habit of yours, you'll have to find your ideal time and place for fast walking, so experiment. Do you prefer trails or in the gym? Sunrise, sunset, or somewhere in between? And once you do find your favorite, you may still want to mix it up once in a while. You may get used to your scenery and stop noticing how beautiful it is. A walk or two in your mall may make you feel like you're noticing the flowers again for the first time once you go back outside.

Because baby bok choy is smaller, you can leave the base intact. Instead, use a sharp knife to cut it into quarters lengthwise. If you prefer, you can cut the baby bok choy in half lengthwise. To clean the bok choy quarters, turn the cold water on in your sink. Place the pieces under the running water one at a time, running your fingers along the entire length to loosen any dirt. If the baby bok choy quarters are very dirty, you may want to run a vegetable scrub brush along them. If you prefer, you can also use the same method for cleaning full size bok choy for the baby variety. Place the quarters in a bowl, cover them with cold water, and allow them to sit for 10 minutes. When you're finished rinsing the baby bok choy quarters under the water, place them on piece of paper towel. Set another piece of paper towel on top, and gently press down to dry them. You can run the baby bok choy quarters through a salad spinner to dry them if you prefer.

If you've already got a way to connect with everyone in your neighborhood (like an online message board or email list), use this to send out a message. Otherwise, go door to door on a weekday evening when most people will be home. Ask who would be interested in contributing to the garden and make a list. When you talk to community members, you can say something like: "Hi! I'm Jenna from down the street. I'm hoping to organize a community garden, and I'd like to know if you'd be interested in working with our neighbors and I on something like that." You may also be able to set up a town hall meeting. Contact a local governmental official or your neighborhood rep to find out if this would be a good option for putting together a garden group. There's going to be a lot of work involved in getting this garden up and running! You need a relatively large group to handle the load. If you end up with more families than fifteen, that's great! However, if your group begins to get too large, you may run into problems with available space. Consider capping the group at about twenty families. There's no set size for a community garden. Generally, single-family plots measure about 10 by 15 feet (3.0 by 4.6m). If you have twenty families with plots, then, you need a minimum space of 3,000 square feet (278.7 ). Most community gardens are at least 2,000 to 5,000 square feet (185.8-464.5 ). If you have access to a smaller spot, that will work great, too! Ultimately, your community garden can be as small or as big as you want. Members of your group will need to regularly water and weed their own plots, and they'll also need to help take care of any group plots. Be sure your prospective families understand these responsibilities before joining the group. It's best to assign certain people to take care of the logistics of your garden. This will keep your garden running smoothly and prevent the work from piling up. A president can coordinate between different families and speak to members about any problems that come up. For example, the president may occasionally have to talk to the group about strictly following the watering schedule. You might also have a vice-president to split the duties of the president. The treasurer can open a bank account in the group's name and pay water, land-leasing, electricity, and trash disposal bills out of that account. The secretary can keep track of all your records and take notes whenever your group (or the officers) meet. A social coordinator can organize monthly and/or annual events for your garden club. Since being an officer could involve a lot work, rotate the duties. Pick a date to hold elections each year. To elect your officers, gather the group together to put names in a hat, or use an online survey tool.
