Walking keeps me active. I tend to do 8 to 10 miles a day on weekdays (mostly with the puppy). I'm told that with my level of health that should be impossible, it is only that I have done it for years and years that I can move so much. Otherwise I'd spend my days working on the computer, watching TV and reading, and the short walk to the corner store would be the most I could manage.

Of course if I had been a runner, or regular gym user, I could have done a lot more, but 8 to 10 miles a day is enough for me.

The proof of the pudding is on Mondays. I don't walk much over the weekend, and that first Monday walk really tires me out!
