All right, so today I'm going to revisit the running versus walking debate.

Which is better?

Hi, I'm Dave.

Welcome to walking as fitness, a daily 10-minute walk that encourages you to get out the door,

take the walk, and to stay consistent.

Today's 10-minute walk starts right after this.

It is a drippy day and you can probably hear the raindrops.

Part of it is actual rain that is falling.

Part of it I think is also rain that has fallen past tense and is now falling off leaves onto the

umbrella because I'm walking in an area with some trees overhead.

So I can't tell how much of this is what I would call live rain and how much of this is

residual rain from earlier.

But here is today's comment, and this is from Scott.

Scott writes, I'm 53 and I've always been a runner.

Mistakenly, I thought walking was inferior to running.

I was wrong.

I started walking with my wife and running less. My body feels better,

and I've really enjoyed walking. I still run, but I've cut down on that activity and walked more

along with adding strength training into my fitness. Scott, appreciate the

comment, appreciate your vulnerability and honesty about how you had viewed walking.

And that's what I want to talk about. This idea that walking is inferior and why, and I don't think Scott is the only one.

In fact, I know Scott is not the only one.
