    I personally don't go for walks as spend my day on my feet, but when I'm out for a bike ride I never fail to see people or large groups of ramblers walking the hills. Is there anything like that you can do near you or not too far away. I know for myself on the bike I need a reason to ride and getting fit isn't it. It has to more specific. When I was racing easy didn't matter what the weather I did. Then when I stopped racing there was never the same motivation. Then when I decided I wanted to get back my fitness I entered an event to help focus the mind. Also thier is no such thing as bad weather only in adequate clothing the hardest part is the going out.

    So why do you walk? Where do you go?

    I don't feel silly walking for walking's sake.

    I walk places like here ... this is about 1.5 km from where I live.

    Or here ... the botanical gardens are about 2.5 km from where I work.

    Or out the Cycleway.

    Or any number of places! :)

    I walk the dog, but a dog is a long term commitment, so I don't know if it's for you. Pick a store the distance away you want to walk. Pick up something you need there, or a snack or drink and walk back home.
