4 Ways to Make Walking Part of Your Self Isolation at Home
How to turn your house and yard into your walking trail
Over the past two months, life for many people around the world has dramatically changed.
Depending on where you live, you may live under some variation of a lockdown. There might be rules on not undertaking non-essential travel or even leaving your home. Social distancing, self isolation and possibly quarantine might be part of your current normal.
But wherever you live and the restrictions you are living with, walking can still be part of your daily routine. Even if that means you have to walk at home and even inside your home.
Why Walk at Home
When you take the time to look around your home, there can be a few ways to keep walking if you must stay at home. Over the past weeks I have put all the following options to the test to keep up my daily goal.
Back in 2015, I set out with my initial goal to walk 10,000 steps per day. It did not take long before I increased this to 15,000 steps per day. Now in 2020 I have set myself the goal of walking 7 million steps this year. You can read more about the goal in my 2020 Goals Review.
