Thanks for the tips Sophie. I wrote this article quite a while ago when this blog was just starting out. Your comment has prompted me to look back at it and I feel I could do a much better job now that I have more blogging experience behind me. I think I will be revisiting this topic in the near future.

It’s true. Walking is great exercise – for body and mind. It’s free, it gives you thinking time, and you can often fit it in easily with your daily routine.

it is good to see mention here that warm-up and stretching are still vital even though this is not high intensity exercise. Walking on pavements in poor footwear, as many city workers do, can take its toll on feet and shins. There are also strengthening exercises that you can do to prevent injury – for example toe raises to prevent “shin splints”.
