Walking for fitness and health

Don't normally use any form of social media etc but thought I'd give this a try to gain encouragement to go forward. Struggle daily with arthritis in knees but too young to get replacement in UK. At present I'm achieving on average about 6800 steps per day. Not bad considering I'm a bus driver.
