    Another walker here. In fact I am a member of the Long Distance Walkers Association here in the UK. Oh and I also run a bit.

    Injured runner here had to switch to walking until fully healed up. Nice change of pace I like it!

    . I have a gazelle, and I "walk" on there when I can't go outside. I have two Leslie Sansone indoor walking tapes. I walk to the grocery store. I walk - - ok enough, I love walking for my exercise.
    I too, walk about 10 k a day outside or with Leslie Sansone videos ( I have them all):-) I love walking:-)

    Yesterday I started Walk at Home and I love it. It is low impact, works all muscle groups, the instructor is motivating, and I can do it in the comfort of my daughter's place. I have injuries to knee's so I can sit if needed or modify the walk. I did a mile (according to video on YouTube) and I was sweating when it was done. I also starting swimming this summer for exercise, again low impact, and that has help me a lot.
    You should try aquacize , it is awesome for sore knees. :-)

    Another walker here, got into it about 3 years ago and have liked it ever since.

    Like to go for 20-30 minute walking bursts a couple times a week, and I walk a lot going to/from/at work!

    I think a LOT of my cals are burned through walking and its toning my thighs up too :D

    Owing to my ongoing back issues, walking is one of the few things I can actually still do (either outside or on a treadmill)....

    I love to walk! I have a gorgeous path near me that goes through my town and also through the woods, it takes me about an hour to finish. I love to do it every day that is sunny but not too hot. Really helps my mood

    Love walking long and fast and intermittently uphill! I just started throwing some running in because my friend wants to do a 5K. I was happy to see the hard walking I do made it possible to go out and run a couple of slow miles with not too much suffering :) I also do the elliptical when it's too hot outside.

    I also walk at work. I get anywhere from 1.1 to 2.2 miles in per day. It may not seem much but it makes a difference in my legs since my knees can't take running (yet).

    I used to walk everywhere, all the time. Bother ways to work, which was 2.4 miles each way. Plus more. That was when I was dating my hubby, and we were both 135 lbs!

    FF 17 years, and now I have started walking again, with my 14 and 15 year old sons! We're up to one mile a day, and having a great time with it! We would go further, but we live in central FL and it's just too crazy hot and humid out! I look forward to the cooler weather and longer walks with my boys!
