    Maybe the typo was 2 miles a day.

    Not sure what you are actually doing but it is pretty normal to gradually increase your time, steps/distance. If you feel you can walk more than you are then go ahead and increase by a bit. Don't go from 2 minutes to 2 hours of walking I suppose. Maybe aim for 10-15 minutes of walking if you are doing 2 minutes. When you can do 10-15 minutes maybe start aiming for 30 minutes.

    2 minutes every day? You should incorporate a rest day. Your body needs time to heal/recover.

    Good job, guys. If OP was serious, they sure as hell aren't coming back to this post.

    They got a serious answer two answers in. The rest is just in fun. :p

    Well, not sure how much you are "really" moving, but 10,000 steps are about 5 miles. That is the recommended amount of walking you should be doing if you are able bodied.

    It depends on where you are health- and fitness-wise. If walking for 2 minutes a day is all you can do right now, then good work! Try working up to the suggestions that some of the other users have mentioned to make sure you're always improving.
