Them boots were made for...

walking. Fancied getting a pedometer ever since I heard that McDonald's were giving them away (but I prefer Burger King, comedy, eh?). The last time I did serious amounts of walking was as a student living in Germany (Braunchsweig) for 4 months. We walked everywhere, from my flat to the pub was a good mile and half each way and a trip to Uni was a 4 mile round journey. I lost shed loads of weight and never felt better (apart from my bad back which eased off after 3 or 4 weeks of solid exercise). Certainly would have blown the recommended 10,000 (5 miles) steps each day guideline out of the water. I shudder to think how many steps I take each day now, if I'm honest I'd be lucky to break a 1000. Maybe I should replicate the walking regime from my time in Germany, along with the constant diet of Beer, crisps, Bratwurst, fruit juice and Toblerone. Worked last time.
