I love walking! I try to go on long walks (3-6 miles) 4 or 5 times a week! I started doing it seriously about 3 years ago when I was told my blood pressure was so high I might have a stroke... My doctor says my blood pressure is excellent, and I've lost about 70lbs since then! Aside from physical health it's also drastically improved my mental health, and now I start to get kind of cranky if I don't get to walk enough lol
