Walk
“All truly great thoughts are conceived while walking.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche
Over half of all car trips in the United States are less than 1 mile-or about a 20-minute walk.
Luckily, Redmond is a "Walkers Paradise" with a Walkscore of 94. This makes it easy for you to swap some of these short drives for a stroll.
Even if you can’t walk for your commute, the benefits of walking to grab a bite to eat or to run your errands are hard to beat!
Benefits of Walking
- 30 minutes of walking reduces risk of heart disease and certain cancers
- Walking has been shown to be a mood booster and stress reducer
- Walking provides FitBit & Apple Watch bragging rights
