2 Approaches for Covering Distance

Either walk the whole way or alternating the walk and run

1. Walk Faster – How To

Walk with intent

Focus - if mind drifts off, you'll slow down

Keep track of your times - miles or km’s or whatever distance

Arms control speed of legs

Keep arms bent at 90 degree – they will move faster and so will legs

2. Alternate between walking and running

Keys to the Walk / Run Alternating Pattern

Focus on walk

If alternating – Primary focus in the walk. Walk with intent and focus, maintain speed.

Wrong Mindset - Running is primary with periods of walking as rest (causes you to walk slowly) 

Correct Mindset - Walking is primary and use running to speed up the walk.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
