I have been trying very hard to get back into shape after having major surgery.  My doctor recommended that I take daily walks and increase the distance each day.  I get bored and I decided that I wanted to listen to music to help pass the time more quickly.  I saw an online ad that said that they had mp3 players for sale and I decided to order one.  The price was excellent and it truly does make a difference in my walks because the time flies by when I am listening to my favorite songs.  This was a great purchase and I love it.
