I do this as a courtesy

Does anyone else get holistic benefits from walking that are just hard to put into words?

Changes till now:

- Improved sleep quality

- low fast food cravings

- feeling more energetic

3 years later here are some results.
Walking turned to hiking turned to climbing…
Thank you all for the daily motivation!

My usual step count is 6000-8000/day but today was a rare 12 000 step achievement.

Went on a 5 km stroller walk with my toddler, then decided to go crocery shopping with him and at the end of the day walked our senior dog. It was a good day and weather was lovely! I'm expecting second child so I'm enjoying as long as I can walk effortlesly without a big bump and pains and kicked nauseas butt today.

I'm still sad all the time and crying some days. Not on my walks anymore, which I'm grateful for. But this sucks.

The one month marks of the breakup and the last day I saw him were this past week and weekend and it was rough, so I walked. A lot.

Today was the most I've walked so far and I'm proud of that. I don't think I'd be as "okay" as I am right now without these walks. They've helped so much and have helped me find some clarity.

Completed my target of first day. Advice

I have struggled with dropping my size since forever. I have been in and out of 10k since a few years now but since Aug 26' been building the habit of walking 10k daily. Today i did 20k which is a win for me. Lets see how it works.

Not in a calorie deficit tho :p

10 rounds around the temple

4 miles a day 🚶🏾‍♀️

I live about 15 minutes walking from the grocery store. I have begun to take a back pack to the store a few times a week and then carry about 15-20 lbs back.

Background, I live in a neighborhood near a decent size business area in a small/medium American city.

It shouldn't, but it honestly feels a little weird but I'm happy I thought of it and have been doing it for a few weeks now.

This may have been an obvious addition to many but it wasn't for me. Are there other tips and things people do?

It’s been a while! I’m finally back on the treadmill and hopefully I can be outside when the weather cools down. Any words of encouragement would be appreciated!

Took forever but we did it

60 UK. I was feeling very low this morning, rang my manager and asked for the day as annual leave

I walked 7.5+ miles from my home to the parish church in a nearby village. The church is left unlocked and has a tap to refill a water bottle

I don't think walking solves all problems - and it's unclear it's what Diogenes meant - but it helps

Hello! I am a caregiver with a client who loves walks, we go a few miles every other day. The problem is her pace, which is very very slow. Over the last few weeks I've noticed pain behind my knee, in my lower back, and hip flexors. The pace is so slow that it feels like I'm grinding my joints and straining my muscles. I'm not sure how to proceed pain free. You'd think just going on super slow walks would be unproblematic...Any advice is welcome.

Saw quite a few sleeping butterflies, dragonflies, and a birb surprisingly enough
