Hunter's Chase GazetteFall is a Great Time to Start a

Fitness Walking ProgramWalking offers significant benefits. It’s a form of cardiovascular

exercise that has been proven to be good for us, if not better, than strenuous jogging. Brisk walking:

• Strengthens the heart and lungs• Helps burn as many calories as running or jogging • Tones up muscles, especially in the lower body • Helps prevent varicose veins• Allows you to sleep better• Improves your mood• Reduces depression and stress• Promotes loss of waste products in the tissues• Lowers the potential for injury compared to running or

jogging since it’s low impact• Puts less stress on your spinal discs It takes no special skill, no need for long practice sessions and no

other equipment other than a good pair of walking shoes. Some walkers may benefit by being part of an organized program.

If interested in joining a walking program, Austin FIT offers a comprehensive walking program that tailors a plan to fit different

levels of walkers through its introductory fitness walking course. For more information, contact Elayne Barber, Head Walking Coach, at [email protected]

From ECOSystems Landscape Services

With a break in the weather comes rejuvenation for your plants. Now is the time to cut your perennials back by 30-50% and let them flush out for a final fall flowering. The same goes for roses and many flowering shrubs, but not as severe a cut back; just a topping.

When rain has come and you're sure the heat is gone, it's time to plant shrubs and trees. From October to April gives you six months of moderate temperatures for the plants to establish roots before the heat returns. This greatly increases survivability. This doesn't apply to cold tender plants like Hibiscus.

With the cooler temps comes the increased chance for disease in your lawn, especially St. Augustine. Try to do all your lawn watering just before morning. Leaves that stay wet overnight are more prone to disease. Also, over-fertilizing your lawn can activate disease.

HERE ARE TWO FALL PLANTING PICKS:

Possumhaw Holly. When the leaves fall, the berries stay on for the winter. It's a xeriscape winner!

Mexican White Oak. Almost evergreen, resistant to Oak Wilt. Not as massive as a live oak and very tough.
