As promised in the last post, here is a bit more information about the health benefits of walking 10,000 steps a day.
History
About 40 years ago in Japan the idea was developed that walking 10,000 steps a day will help you keep fit and healthy without the need for additional exercise. So ideally, between the first plundering steps to the bathroom in the morning, to the last few as we crawl into bed at night, we should have walked 10,000 steps, which is roughly 5 miles or 8 kilometres.
