This is an interesting easy to read article explaining the benefits of walking.

stylecraze.com/articles/bes...

I have always thought that walking is such a good activity and has great all round health benefits for body, mind, weight loss, heart health, diabetes, boosting energy etc to mention just a few. It’s much easier on the joints than jogging or running and for me is more sustainable long term and you can go at your own pace.

Just 30 minutes a day could make all the difference and it’s a cheap activity that doesn’t involve a financial outlay, membership or equipment. Walking ticks all of my boxes πŸ‘πŸšΆβ€β™€οΈπŸ˜

The photo is Kirkstone pass from my walking holiday in Cumbria in November last year.

It is beautiful isn’t it. I feel relaxed just thinking about being there. Next time I can get away for a walking holiday I think we will go to Derbyshire. Have you been there?

Hi Ali, I can highly recommend Derbyshire, particularly Longnor Wood Holiday Park, we stayed there last September and are going back in May. The site is literally right in the middle of the countryside and 6 miles from Buxton,we bought our groceries in Buxton.

You can book through the site direct, no need to involve holiday companies.

Sounds lovely. May and September are the best months to go aren’t they. Not too hot and not too busy! I’ll look up the site πŸ™‚πŸ‘

Yes they are the best months, long days in May and still like Summer early September. The site was lovely.πŸ˜€

I've not walked in Derby I've been around the Lake District and thought this was there.

It was the Lake District Jerry but was saying next time we will go to Derbyshire and wondered if you knew it there as well.πŸ™‚

I realised that Ali as it says Kirkstone pass...LOL... I got muddled up with your vegantics...πŸ˜™

Thank you for sharing Ali and couldn't agree more, I love walking. I haven't looked at the article yet but will do.

Ah, the Lake District, my second home, I wish.πŸ˜‰
