Hi, I'm Frank from the Walking for Health and Fitness Website - here are 30 Health Benefits of a Long Walk.

I began walking as a way to overcome a back injury and while walking to get back into shape so I could run again, I fell in love with walking. I enjoy the sensation of my arms and legs moving in a cross-patterned movement. When I'm in the groove, I slip into a meditative state that is calming and puts me in a great frame of mind. I use walking to stay fit, manage my weight, and increase my longevity. Enjoy these 30 Health Benefits of Taking a Long Walk.
