Walking is Fitness

I ran across one of your YouTube videos just over a week ago and have listened to about six podcasts since. I used to walk/hike a lot but have grown more sedentary as I approach 60. Your simple messages of encouragement and your passion for walking have gotten me outside walking again and I am trying to build a habit by taking daily 10-minute walks. Once I’ve established the habit I want to increase my walks to at least 7,500 steps (I just watched your video where you cited the research supporting health benefits). Thank you for sharing with us.

This is such a great podcast. It’s really excellent for beginners, though I am a veteran walker, trying to walk 10k steps consistently. Dave speaks in a calm, reassuring manner and it helps me tremendously to focus on walking and remember the great benefits of walking. If you’re reading this, Dave, don’t change a thing! It’s super good.

Thank you so much for providing this podcast. I am a faithful listener of RWW Talk and that is how I heard about you. Just such a pleasant way to start my walk.

Since I’ve discovered Dave’s podcast, I have increased the frequency of my walking. If I ever have a doubt about going out for my morning walk, I think, “Dave will be there and I can walk with him.” Thanks, Dave, for your commitment to set an example of walking every day and sharing so we can all talk a walk!
