I was making an unfortunately snide reference reference to someone else's
insistence that walking is not a good form of exercise, apologies. I used to
walk about 9 miles a day, to the pub. and back. I went from nearly 15 stone
to 12 in less than 3 months (a very low fat diet at the same time - unlimited
beer, though!). Wore out a couple of pairs of boots, but no bad side-effects
apart from a slight case of shin splints early on. I know a chap who has been
doing quite a lot of running, or rather used to... he's knackered now :(
