TMonk I discovered the advantages and joys of walking late in life, too. The delay was caused by my love of cycling. In January 2025, my spouse and I took a vacation where we walked 5 to 9 miles a day, and we realized we really like it. Her goal is 30 minutes of walking per day. I should make a similar goal. Nowadays I do more errands on foot. I'm extremely lucky that I live in an area where that's possible. I walk to my pharmacy, supermarket, dry cleaner, and several other places. For a little extra exercise, I carry my groceries and don't use any wheeled gadgets.
