One of the best things you can do for your health is to get
out there and walk every day. The great thing about walking is it costs
nothing, takes you places, improves your health and just about everyone over
the age of 2 can do it!
Did you know that if you walk just one mile you burn between
65 and 100 calories? The average number of steps per mile is 2000. Most people
walk 3000-4000 steps a day. Now if you are sitting on the couch watching TV or
playing video games you’re probably not doing those 3000-4000 steps.
It’s summer, the weather is nice and it’s time to get up off
your couch and go for a stroll. Walk
around your neighborhood, meet your neighbors and see the sights. Take your dog
for a walk and get him or her in shape with some gentle exercise.
Walking lets you explore your surroundings. Go to a park and
walk the trails absorb some sunlight and be one with nature.
Now get out there and get walking!
