All right. Are you ready to do this thing? Are you ready to take a 10-minute walk together? Yeah, I know. It sounds a little different today, and I'll explain why in just a moment. Welcome to walking is fitness. This is a podcast of action as we walk together for 10

minutes in an effort to hold each other accountable for keeping our commitment to fitness.

This episode is sponsored by the Step Fit Plan, which is a guide to help you transition your

walking from merely functional. That is walking that we do every day, that we don't even think about.

That's the walking we do in the store.

That's the walking we do at work, whether it's from office to office

or to take something from point A to point B.

It's the walking we do as we're doing chores around the house.

We don't even think about it.

It is a beneficial activity.

There's research that indicates even light activity.

That type of walking has health benefits.

But it often doesn't rise to the level of exercise, a moderate level

activity that the CDC has specifically defined. And if you want exercise, if you want fitness walking,

well, that's going to take some intentionality. It's going to take some intensity and it's going to take a plan.

And that's what the stepfit guide is all about. It is a plan to help you make that transition

from functional walking that you're not thinking about to fitness walking that really does

have intentionality and intensity. Here's the good news. The Stepfit plan,

it's effective, it's free, and it's easy to get. Go to walking as fitness.com. You can check
