Arrow ..... walking backwards in Weirs Beach?

Hey there, here's what looks like an excellent, year round, walking route in Weirs Beach. It includes three roads: Lakeside Ave, Endicott St, and Tower St so it's a triangle of maybe two miles walking distance, plus Tower St is a super steep hill without a sidewalk but with very little car traffic. It doesn't matter which direction you go on this triangular route because Endicott St is also a long hill with an excellent sidewalk.
For a 300-yard walking backward zone, either Lakeside Ave or the sidewalk on Endicott St will be good to go backward.

Very few people go walking these city public sidewalks and road, especially in the off-season.

The Cumberland Farms store has a public rest room plus is a good spot to buy a cup of hot coffee located at the height of land on this triangular 2-mile walk.

Endicott St is the local name for Route 3, Daniel Webster Hgwy.

Parking your car on Lakeside Ave is easy-peasy, this time of year.

Walking two miles each and every day will keep the doctor away. Walking backwards for 300-yards is good for the hips, sense of balance, and lower back.

Power walking with 2 to 4-lb weights is not really needed because the two hilly streets, Tower and Endicott are long uphill or downhill and the hills provide resistance to walking. .......
