But I do it in the house. I wouldn't want to do it outside or my neighbors will think I've totally gone nuts! Why is it better to do it outside? I'm doing this to kill two roaches with one slipper. I get to practice my Welsh while getting exercise. I didn't know it had an active influence on learning. Is there more info about "shadowing" besides what's written with the video? Does anyone know? I do read out loud and write down a page or two of a Welsh material too. I didn’t know other people are also doing what I do, that is to walk quickly and practice speaking in my case Welsh.
