Most of us don't walk for work, but walking, I believe, can actually improve work.

Hi, I'm Dave. Welcome to Walking as Fitness.

This is a daily podcast that helps you create and sustain a habit of walking.

Today's 10 minute walk starts in just a moment.

I want to talk about using walking to work. So walking is a great fitness activity. When you

build a habit of walking, you're investing in your future health, but there are also some

If you are delivering mail, and you have one of those mail routes where you have to walk from one box to the next,

not talking about that, not talking about working in a warehouse and you're constantly

moving from one part, one place in the warehouse to another. So I'm not talking about where

walking is a requirement of the job. I'm talking about you can do your work, which is separate from walking.

You can do your work while you're walking.

And this is something that I've really kind of fallen in love with over the years.

And I don't do it all the time, but it is something that I try to do as

Meeting while you're walking.

And he was working.
