maggie nesciur: NYC walker
Not done an entry on walking yet – kind of important – so feel this is a fab one to start with. Maggie Nesciur walks 90 miles a week through the hoods thankful she’s still able to walk and breathe after surviving cancer – discovers life is good. This is a complete breath of fresh air – and judging by the comments, I think Maggie’s life is all up from here…
There you are short n nice for a friday afternoon. So perfect. Found via SwissMiss > Protect New York, then a cracking interview that restored my faith in human nature (and nice pics) at the New York Times.

i love this piece – and totally relate to it!
i gave up my car at least 4 years ago, and walk everywhere.
it changes your perspective- time for thought, ideas, concepts,
people, relationships, the world, but most of all life.
a precious commodity.
i have given up saying i was the z3 girl or the audi it girl…now my shoes
do the talking. i have turned it in to an art ‘sculpture’ form.
