[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I have a question: where do you walk? I have a flexible schedule too, and walk a lot for errands (live near Clarendon in N. Arlington) but have trouble wanting to walk recreationally. It's just so trafficky around here. Do you live near a more woodsy/natural area, or do you walk on city streets?

This is OP - sorry, just saw your message! We left DC a couple of years ago and live in a small city in Florida now. One reason we picked the house/neighborhood where we are is because there's so much good walking here. I have a few regular walks that I go on from here - one that takes me along a bay for a lot of it, one that is mostly urban (we have sidewalks here), one in the big park across the street from our house.

We lived in Old Town before this, and had a lot of good sidewalk walking there, too - though the drivers seemed very distracted and dangerous a lot of the time. There were a lot of times some jerk nearly hit me because they weren't checking an intersection to make sure it was empty before bowling through. Before that I was in Columbia Heights and did a lot of city walking, plus Rock Creek Park.

I never lived in Clarendon so don't know the walks you can do there as well - but am I remembering right that there's a lot of sidewalks? If so I'd just go wander around and see if you can find yourself a sidewalk-ed route that's about as far as you are interested in. I would imagine it's possible to find. Could you go from Clarendon to Court House and back?[/quote]
