An estimated 65 million people worldwide walk for exercise and recreation, but only a small number benefit fully from the activity. Walking has valuable information for all walkers, from the first-timer to the lifetime enthusiast. It’s a call to adventure for anyone looking for fun, relaxation, and basic fitness.
This book is part of the Outdoor Pursuits Series from Human Kinetics. Like all the books in the series, Walking emphasizes safety, environmental responsibility and, most of all, the fun of outdoor activity.
