Oh happy day. Today I returned to the track for the first time as I have now resumed my weekly walking-for-exercise routine.
However, instead of 7 days of walking per week I've reduced that to 3. Instead of walking for an hour and a half my new max is one hour. My pace, instead of being 3.5 miles per hour, is now a mere 3.00 miles per hour (a 20-minute mile pace). Today I walked for an hour at a 3.00 mph pace and covered just over 3 miles. I see no problem in maintaining a moderate amount of weekly cardio just as long as I don't overdo it. No one "gets lean" by walking alone. However, it can definitely help out in terms of calories-out in a simple and sustainable way.
How often do you walk?
How far do you walk?
How much time does it take you?
What is your pace?
Do you enjoy it?
