Yesterday I was complimented on my ability, nay, my unconscious practice of walking fast. Sometimes I walk fast. I do. (I guess...) And I write this post only for irony's sake, because today, at approximately the same time of day, a different individual remarked on this same practice...but wondered if I was okay. Was I cold? Was I in a hurry to get somewhere? Why did I walk so fast?
err...
Can't please everybody, I guess.

I applaud anyone who walks fast. At least you have one more person on your side.
I concur. As a mutual fast walker, it is incredibly difficult to slow my pace. It's just the speed I am naturally comfortable with. It has little or nothing to do with anything else.

I walk fast because I am not paying attention to it and it just feels better. Having walked miles in Brazil to appointments you always seemed late to may have helped the subconcious training.
