Walking is an fantastic exercise and one of my favorites. It's easy, convenient, inexpensive, amazingly good for you. And if you walk with a friend, a great way to catch up. Yet it's all too often overlooked when people consider which form of exercise to do.

I took over 13,000 steps at DisneyWorld and it felt great!
