    Default How much do you walk?

    How much do you walk every day or week?

    Had the thought while strolling to my buddy's today for our Sunday visit. It's about a mile each way. A very pleasant walk. I wondered how much the car had taken over from our feet amongst us.

    I figure I walk at least three to four miles a day. Somewhere between twenty-five and thirty miles a week at least on average. More when work calls for it.

    When I lived in the real boonies, I walked at least fifty or sixty a week.

    I can walk forever, even with a load on my back, but as a wheezing asthmatic, my running is measured in yards.

    Yeah i feel I can walk forever too. I only stop when my feet hurt to much from the contact(I have flat feet). I like to walk, I find it helps my thinking.

    Donno exactly how much I do it though.

    i like to walk quite a bit - though i doubt it is that much

    i used to do cross country - so id rather walk 10 miles than run it

    it ruins my body



    anyway - when the summer starts - i hope to walk a mile a day coupled with 200 pushups

    maybe more - but we will see how it goes


    i conscider "walking" only to be the amount that i consciously walk to and from places

    so i dont add it all up together

    anywhere between 3 and 30000000000 miles a day

    I really like walking while listening to music, myself. I think, when averaged out as I tend to walk more on the weekends, I probably walk about 3 miles a day.

    I like to walk a lot. Most of the time I walk to the institute, that's maybe 3 kilometers so 2 miles. That often several times per day, so maybe 20 miles per week plus maybe 10 miles for other destinations.
