Today is National Walking Day, an annual event that the American Heart Association hopes will help raise awareness of the benefits of adding a walking routine to busy folks' daily lives. The AHA says walking is very cost effective and efficient to do. You don't need any special equipment. You can do it just about anywhere, and even just 20 minutes of walking a day can help burn off up to seven pounds a year, if you did nothing else different in you daily life. The AMA says for every hour of regular exercise you do, you'll gain two hours of life expectancy. There's more information online at http://www.startwalkingnow.org/
