I just walked about 5 km (slightly over 3 miles, for you American folk), from my place to here: http://en.wikipedia.org/w...ton_Centre and back. This is the longest I've walked in years and years by about...oh, 4.9 km.

My cell died and I just couldn't justify driving two-and-a-half km to get to the dealer (especially on such a beautiful day). So I hoofed it.

If my cell were working, I would've snapped pics for you along the way?

Do you walk much? Regularly? How far? Where from and to? Enquiring minds want to know.

i don't have a car, so yeah. i pretty much walk everywhere. i don't gauge how much i walk, but on my trip to new york last weekend we realized we were walking around greenwich village for about six hours straight. oops.

i love it, though. walking is a very meditative thing for me. i'm always lost in my own world when i go walking on errands or whatever.

I enjoy walking

I do when it is not 90 degrees outside

Yes, I do. Everywhere as I no longer have a vehicle.

I wish I could walk in this heat. I try but I get so hot and it makes me miss my pool. I do not sweat- I just turn red and want to pass out....

I guess Miles goes for you, right?

i think it helps that i have a good A/C this year. as long as i know i'm coming home to a nice, chilly apartment, i can brave the heat outside. otherwise, it's all about hiding from the hot weather as much as possible.

I have ice cold air and i stay in it...lol

I used to make myself exercise outside, get really hot then swim in the pool.

Before I had a car I walked everywhere. Now, not quite as much.

I do walk about 4.5 miles 2-4 times a week for exercise/fun. I'm increasing that to about 7 miles in the next few weeks.

I walk everyday..for about a mile or so. It's good cardio.

i practically walk everywhere everyday. especially when i'm downtown. i don't know how many miles but in Chicago its not unusual for me to walk from Harrison to the water tower place when its warm or cold. i have a lot of nervous energy so if i'm not sick or carrying alot of stuff i walk rather than sit still on the bus for a period of time. hell sometimes walking is faster.

Har har.

I used to walk everywhere when I was away at school. Every place that I needed to get to was only about a 15-20 minute walk away and it also saved me a lot of money. Now that I am back at home, I don't walk much, unless it is on my treadmill. Everything is just too far away to try to walk.

Dont walk much now, need to start that again its hard with it being so hot out now.

Everyday!

To the subway, bus stops, the market. Where I live people also bike a lot (we have paved lanes for bikes on all our sidewalks), so I'm ready to get off a couple of lbs. by biking it through the city.

I walk alot ... Came in handy when I was in the UK!

Oh... Walking! no, not much

As soon as I get dressed- I am going for a long walk with the dog.

I used 2 walk home from school but since the city has become very dangerous and I come out of school at 7 pm now, I don't. I miss it

I walk the kids to school and pick them up again everyday. It isn't very far though.

Aside from my exercise (40 minutes on the treadmill a few times a week) I walk when something is close in my neighborhood & I have the time. I always walk to my hair appointments b/c parking is terrible & it's only a 25 minute walk. A few friends live in the neighborhood so I'll walk to their houses. I like walking to the health food store too but coming back w/ a heavy bag ain't cute - it's uphill

I walk enough for exercise but not for leisure...

I walk a couple miles a day 3-4 days a week. I go out of my way to walk when possible. It helps that I live in a beautiful walkable city. It's my main form of exercise right now.

Yeah....3 miles on Mon, Wed, Thurs.

Well I guess thats not a lot....but for me it is.

I'm forced to walk as I can never afford to catch a bus - but I hate it.

I tend to go in a trance when I'm walking - especially if I'm listening to music.

Two weeks ago, I set off walking at nine pm and didn't arrive home until ten-forty pm. It felt like I'd only been trudging around for about twenty minutes. According to Google Maps, it was 4.2 miles by car - so possibly longer by foot.

I always think that somebody's going to come up behind me and push me in the road when I'm walking down the street.

Yeah, I always was a 'walker'.
I can't drive - I don't like public transport so most of the time I'm just walking the streets...

And this way I save losts of money too!

yes, at work I'll pretty much always on the move and walking is also apart of my workout.
