What type of clothing should I wear?

• Make sure you wear comfortable shoes. Proper footwear provides you with cushioning, support and grip. There is no doubt about it, wearing the right pair of shoes can make your walking routine easier and more enjoyable.
• Make sure you wear comfortable clothes appropriate for the weather. Wear reflective clothes if you are walking at night.
• In cold weather try layering your clothes. Try to avoid wearing cotton as the inside layer. Wear an insulating middle layer, and a wind and rainproof outer layer. Wear a hat. Be careful not to over dress because you may get too hot, and excessive sweat can cause a chill.
• In warm weather wear loose breathable clothes. Wear sunscreen and a hat with a visor to protect your face. Remember to drink lots of water.
