Do you walk for exercise? I LOVE to be outside, so when it is nice my favorite exercise is walking. Of course I'm not in that great of shape but I do wear a pedometer and shoot for 10,000 steps for the entire day. Some days I exceed this and some days I fall very short but I do enjoy walking. It gives me a chance to pray, think and plan my day....... off I go ....

I love to walk. I don't necessarily do it for exercise it just so happens that I walk a lot.
-
;DGreat subject. I, too, enjoy walking but do not do it enough. Began walking this spring, but had sciatic probs and bursitis in my him :'(
But that's clearing up. I need to get one of those podometers, though. I live on a big hill and coming back up is a challenge. We have a couple of great parks with tracks and also a track at the local high school. Do you guys have a regular time you go, or play it by ear. 8)

I love to walk. I do it a lot on my job, but I also walk for exercise. It is a great way to be outside getting exercise and not be in a gym.

I like to go for walks with my boyfriend, but I don't go walking very often. I should go more.

I take a stop watch with me and walk one half hour everyday except Sunday. I really enjoy walking and thanks to it I've lost 32 lbs. in 3 months.

NO I walk when I'm upset and run for exercise :star: :star: :star:

I walk constantly but here lately the more I walk the more my feet swell

walking is good but to be really effective it needs to be a brisk walk
-
Ilove to walk. Walking is great for the whole body. It gets you blood to pumping.

I walked without fail for years and years. Then I started taking my dog with me, and it turned into more or less a dog walk, and they always stop to sniff and pee, etc. I need to get back in the habit of walking ALONE.

Let me qualify, I also watch what, when and how much I eat. I stay away from the processed stuff and the sugary garbage too. Eating and exercise modification together are really THE dynamic duo.

I aim for 2-8 miles per day, depending on how my pain level is...and yes, watching your food is abolutely key to the slimming down too. right now, I can only attempt mild inclines, as the lyrica has destroyed my depth perception. I used to LOVE hills and mountains.
-
I don't really like walking i would rather run
-
Yes i do love to walk and have thought about getting a pedometer again. Mine just seem to keep breakin on me. they dont cost very much but its fusterating. I say i walk alot. evey morning i go look at my garden.
-
I used to walk a lot but now I just take the car. I keep fit by playing sports with my friends or at the gym.
-
I walk as often as I can. But in the summer, I am so active outside with yard work and etc that it becomes my exercise. I also lift weights 3 times/week. If only I could stop drinking beer, I could lose some weight.
-
I love to walk. My daughter and I walk 3 times a week at this really nice park not to far from our house. We walk 3 to 4 miles. We used to walk 8 miles but we have gotten lazy.
-
I love to take walks. When my Ex had my Car, my Son and I had to walk everywhere. It was a bit hard when we had to carry groceries home but it was more of a work-out that way. Now that I have my car back I drive everywhere just because I CAN...pretty soon I'll start walking again.
-
i love walking! i do it all the time and i try to walk as much as possible. if i can walk somewhere i'll do that over driving.
-
I personally walk just because I enjoy it. I love to be outside getting some exercise while being able to look around me and see all of the beautiful things in life. :peace: :heart:
-
I love getting out and walking but don't do it as much as i use to
-
i don't like walking outside. i want a treadmill and walk while i'm watching my shows. ahahha
-
I don't have a car right now, so I walk everywhere! It's easy to do in a small town. I love walking, but then there are some days when I really wish I had a car.
-

I was walking for exercise, as well as jogging occasionally, but the past month I've been having digestive problems and since I haven't been eating much, I don't have the energy to exercise. Besides, I'm underweight as it is, and I can't afford to lose any more. If I could eat a lot to make up for it, I would enjoy walking and jogging.
