I walk between 2 and 4 miles a day....on the boardwalk there are some 1/10th mile markers and I counted that I take 7,240 steps a mile. That plus all the regular walking and steps in the townhouse we live in...8 to kitchen from front door,3 to living room from kitchen and 11 up to bedrooms....I tell the wife the steps might keep us going !
I walk outisde unless it's pouring out. |

I average 30,000 steps (~12 miles) daily, unless super-inclement weather or ill. The pedometer app on my phone is prob my most used one

My wife is the "stepper" and tracks it all daily on her watch and apps.
I walk the pup about a half mile a day until she gets older and ride an exercise bike 2 miles a day. That along with other bullshit walking for errands and such. I have Arthritis and need to stay loose. Laptop/keyboard helps keep my finger motion good by jacking BN2L around during the day. I'm still lean at 6' 180lbs. |

I never purposely walk to walk, if I feel the need to walk it's dog walking time and or pick up sticks. A couple of acres to keep up with and 4 hundred projects keeps me active. As an old timer told me when I was maybe 20.... Stay active stay alive. He was 80ish when I met him and could out work me easily. He ran a bar for 30 plus years and too many long time customers and friends who retired sat just sat in the bar. Most would be dead within a year. When he retired and sold the bar he purchased a farm(not a farmer). The exercise also kept his diabetes in control. Diabetes took a leg when he was 92 and he didn't make it a year. |

I walk as much as I can before my knees swell up an give out. On the flip side, I walk as much as I can so they don't lock up and give out due to sitting for too long.

I try for 20 miles/week.
In past year I did 10 miles twice, once in disney, the other in Key West. An old adage, if you can walk you are good. Dead people rarely walk,,, |

2 miles a day. It’s a nice walk up the country road and a good opportunity to pick up trash and move tree limbs off the road.

Since I got a smart phone in July, and loaded a pedometer on it, I walk a lot more. Usually over 5 miles a day. Sometimes over 8. It's motivating. Here's January, still working on March.
