Quotes to ponder:

"Walking for weight loss is about more than just moving - it's about pushing yourself a little more each time."

"Adding elevation will burn significantly more calories than walking on flat terrain, and can also tone your legs."

"If you’re using a pedometer and just starting out, build up to 5,000 steps each day. Then, gradually up to 7,000."
