Walking

Walk, don't run

The writer recently came across an interesting YouTube presentation on the dynamics of walking and how it affects every part of the body in a positive way. In fact, it is one of the core actions of human beings alongside breathing, eating and sleeping. The presentation is as follows:

Walking is the only exercise your body was designed for, The Feynman Way, 14 March 2026, YouTube, duration: 28.01 minutes.

Another presentation from around the same time offered a similar analysis of the importance of walking, outside of the familiar exercise paradigm.

The truth about how much you should be walking, the mindbodygreen podcast, 3 May 2026, YouTube, duration: 41.12 minutes.

Both these videos are revelatory. Why? Because, like the issue of eating eggs, the public message in recent years around walking has been mixed. The writer had recently seen a YouTube video by a medical physician - real or AI??? - which spoke of the dangers of walking.

....

However, the video presented at the top of the article is the one which most resonated with the present writer, mostly because the arguments presented therein were both understandable and logical. It was easy to see that truth was being spoken here, and the lessons to be learnt were clear and concise.

Wollongong City Council - Platform for Change 2011

Image
On 3rd September 2011 the residents of the City of Wollongong had the opportunity to vote for a popularly-elected, representative Cou ncil and Lord Mayor. This was an important moment in the history of the city , for W ollongong had been without civic leadership and direction since the corruption scandals of 2006-7 brought about the Council's sacking on 5 March 2008. Prior to that, a "development at any cost" mentality, corruption of individuals and process, and political inertia over more than a decade stripped the city of its vitality, damaged the environment and marked it as a cultural backwater. Since 2008 the ALP-appointed administrators and Council bureaucracy had exacerbated the problem by shutting down community engagement and depriving the people of the City of their legitimate right to inclusive local government. On 3 September 2011 there was an opportunity for change. Wollongong needed to be kick-started, and Council opened up to new ideas, new energy and a ne...
