Op - yes I have a full time job. But when I have calls that I just have to listen to I can walk the dog if necessary.

DP, you realize it takes less than an hour to walk 3-4 miles per day, right?

This. A run will be anywhere from 6-13k steps. if I'm at 13k when I'm done with my run, I sit for a lot of the day and end up between 15-18k steps. On non-run days, my goal is 6k but I hope to end up around 8. I try to average 9k a day.

Usually @ 8,000. Has worked well for me, have seen a lot of health markers improve.

I'm sorry that happened! Make some soup out of your own home-made bone broth and heal soon! I hate it when I can't Exercise

There was a study last year that showed that more than 8k has diminishing returns. I usually get around 9k which is up from 6k average for 2023 (but I was sick for a lot of the year)

Can you walk faster than a 20 minute mile? Have you ever timed yourself? My guess is no based on your response. A lot of these goals are much easier than people make it out to be. I will be accused of being an a** but think of all the steps you could take if substituted walking for DCUM. Very simple walking -around your office floor, around your street and in the next two streets.

I time myself every day with my apple watch when I walk my dog. We walk about 2 miles and it takes about an hour.

I run about 9 minute miles.

The average person walks 3 mph, so if you're walking just slightly faster than a stroll, this can easily be completed.
