This is the Walking Challenge for March.

Walking is simple, free and one of the easiest ways to get more active, lose weight and become healthier.

Sometimes overlooked as a form of exercise, walking briskly can help you build stamina, burn excess calories, and make your heart healthier.

Set a monthly goal and post your steps daily. Setting a specific goal will make sure that you stay accountable and get enough walking in to make a difference.

You can use a Fitbit or a pedometer app on your mobile phone, for example, to track your daily steps or the distance of your workouts.
