[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on whether you’re in a city/suburb/rural area. In some burbs in the US, it’s not possible to walk 30 min in one direction without hitting a 4-lane busy road that has no sidewalks or crosswalks.[/quote]

I know and find that pretty sad. I would feel trapped. Never understood the appeal of suburbs. [/quote]

I live in Ashburn and walk about 12k steps a day at least. I just got back from my walk tog er coffee, 45min round trip. I could walk from my house all the way into DC or west and hit the foothills of the blue ridge if I wanted to and never leave a trail or sidewalk. Many of the paths go under major roads so no need to cross them.  There are an insane amount of blacktop trails which are much better on the body than concrete sidewalks. I actually love living out here because I’m a biker and love being  connected to the WOD and C&O. 2xs a week I have to be in my Reston office and commute on my bike. There are so many bike commuters it’s really great to see. [/quote]
