Default Walked up to the end of my street!

I just started walking for exercise. I don't have a car and I walk/take the bus everywhere I go but I usually plan a route that is short and avoids the steepest hills. Tonight I decided to challenge myself. I leashed up the dog and headed straight up the hill! I walked five blocks up steeper and steeper. I got to the top and I could see the beautiful lights of San Francisco twinkling across the bay. I'd never been up there on foot before. It felt amazing. I'm definitely going to add uphill walking to my routine.

She is definitely loving the increase in walking! She's a german shepherd and it's nice to have a buddy and a protector for late night walks.
