This article is so timely because I walked to and from work today (about 3.5 miles each way, and made a stop at the bookstore on the way home)

Everyone at work was like… “You WALKED?!? Are you insane? How far is that!?”

Too Many of Us Are Missing the Benefits of a Good, Long Walk

In general, Americans are far behind most of the world when it comes to everyday walking habits, and Minnesota is in the middle of the pack nationally when it comes to walking rates. Even in parts of the city with nice sidewalks, close destinations and good weather, most people don’t walk much unless they’ve got a dog with them. For Twin Cities folks, any unnecessary walking, like being forced to park a block from a restaurant, is seen as a travesty.

Happy to say I’m well over 15,000 steps today 🙂
