Thanksgiving is a great holiday if you love getting together with friends and family—and sharing lots of tasty food. But eating too much can leave you feeling too sluggish to really appreciate the time you get to spend with people you love. Making time to work out before Thanksgiving and planning to take a walk after dinner can boost your metabolism, aid in digestion, and keep you from crashing so that you can make the most of your night.

Halloween is just ahead on the horizon like a big, glowing jack-o’-lantern. That means it’s almost time to gather up your little ghouls and goblins and head out for a night of trick-or-treating. But before you set foot out into that cool autumn air, explore some tips for Halloween and trick-or-treat safety including how to reduce foot pain from a long evening of walking.
