A Facebook group - "Daily Mile Melksham" has been set up for April - "This is a virtual challenge to help you move more by getting out to walk 1 mile a day! Walking is the most underrated forms of exercise, let’s go!!!!". Nothing to do with me, but I'm going to take part and see how I can do in the case of my daily life and you can too!

I have never exercised just for the sake of exercise - I get easily bored and would much rather build my exercised into other things I do during the day. But it IS a good idea to keep tabs on how much exercise I get - again I would get bored logging that, but (accidentally) there's an app on my phone that I hadn't realised was turned on a while back and it's built a history.

I'm a fairly keen walker (perhaps there's some nominative determinism there) .  For example, I probably covered more than 12 miles yesterday....but that was a day out walking, of which I do a fair few.
It would not surprise me if the mean average comfortably exceeds 5 miles per day, especially between the spring and autumn.
I'm so pleased that I was brought up to enjoy walking from childhood and to a greater or lesser extent have kept it up ever since.  Keeping "in practice" continues to be a great joy in life.....both with company or on on my own little jaunts.

Certainly less than a mile, the arthritic knees won't have it. But normally do at least 15 km a day on the bike.
