But a number of other things can make it a more pleasant experience. Here is my list of 10 essentials that walkers shouldn't leave home without. After I limited myself to 10, I noticed that I had left off taking along a cell phone. One reason is that I first wrote this list back in 1997, before I got a cell phone. I'm a late adopter for cell phones. The other is that I rarely carry my cell phone on walks. I like to concentrate on talking to my walking buddies or listening to my MP3 player, not taking or making calls. But it could be useful for those rare times you need to call 911.

A statue dedicated to the "walking man". Walking is the main form of animal locomotion on land , distinguished from running and crawling . When carried out in shallow waters, it is usually described as wading and when performed over a steeply rising object or an obstacle it becomes scrambling or climbing .

(This distinction has the status of a formal requirement in competitive walking events, often resulting in disqualification even at the Olympic level.)

6. Thoreau's Walking - With Annotated Text Hypertext of Thoreau s walking, in several parts, with links to other online versions. http://thoreau.eserver.org/walking.html

Walking by Henry David Thoreau - 1862 - with annotated text Thoreau Reader: Home "Walking" began as a lecture, first delivered at the Concord Lyceum on April 23, 1851, and many other times, until it evolved into the essay published in the Atlantic Monthly, after his death in 1862. "... in Wildness is the preservation of the world" "Those words cleaved their way forcefully into my being in 1983, the first time I read the great sage of the woods. I had bought a copy of his works at a book sale in Bharatpur, yes, my first visit to that avian shrine, and on returning to Hyderabad, spent numberless hours, blissfully sipping such verbal novelties, such novel ideas, written with a pen that seemed to spring from my very heart, that I trembled unabashedly in the passion and ardor of the author. I feel that the lodestone of his philosophy is encapsulated in this immortal phrase. "Notice, the man used 'Wildness', with a capital 'W', and not 'wilderness' as he is often misquoted. 'Wildness' has that extra whump to it, which transcends it into a meaning completely different from 'wilderness'."

Benefits of Exercise Walking The fundamental health benefits of exercise walking are many. Metabolically, it helps control weight, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels. A brisk walk can burn up to 100 calories per mile or 300 calories per hour. Walking is the perfect complement to a sensible diet to lose weight and keep it off. Walking improves cardiovascular fitness. As an aerobic exercise, walking gets the heart beating faster to transport oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to the muscles. The heart and lungs grow more efficient with a regular walking regimen, reducing blood pressure and the resting heart rate. Walking is even a central element of medical rehabilitation. Recovery from many ailments, including heart attack, is facilitated by a regular walking regimen. For people with poor circulation to the arms and legs, walking can increase the size and improve the efficiency of the tiny vessels that supply blood for cellular respiration. Anyone diagnosed with poor circulation should see a doctor before beginning exercise walking. Psychologically, walking generates an overall feeling of well-being, and can relieve depression, anxiety, and stress by producing endorphins, the body's natural tranquilizer. A brisk walk will relax you and stimulate your thinking.

Works Walking by Henry David Thoreau I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civilto regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that. It is true, we are but faint-hearted crusaders, even the walkers, nowadays, who undertake no persevering, never-ending enterprises. Our expeditions are but tours, and come round again at evening to the old hearth-side from which we set out. Half the walk is but retracing our steps. We should go forth on the shortest walk, perchance, in the spirit of undying adventure, never to return prepared to send back our embalmed hearts only as relics to our desolate kingdoms. If you are ready to leave father and mother, and brother and sister, and wife and child and friends, and never see them againif you have paid your debts, and made your will, and settled all your affairs, and are a free manthen you are ready for a walk.

Walking by Henry David Thoreau At the EcoTopia web site This essay was presented as a lecture by Thoreau in his later years but only published after his death. It's best known quote, "In wildness is the preservation of the world," has become one of the rallying cries of the environmental movement. But Thoreau means much more by the phrase than most of his modern admirers realize. "Wildness" is Nature itself, and Man is seen as an aspect or manifestation of Nature. The rules that apply to one apply to the other. This is, in fact, one of the three seminal works of the environmental movement, the other two being Emerson's Nature and George Perkins Marsh's Man and nature; or, Physical geography as modified by human action Many thanks to Q Meyers who scanned, proofed and formatted this text.
