Walking / By Ruth Rudner.
Paperback.
An estimated 65 million people worldwide walk for exercise and recreation, but only a small number benefit fully from the activity. Walking is for all walkers and hikers, from first-timers to lifetime enthusiasts. Its a call to adventure for anyone looking for fun, relaxation, and basic fitness.
Award-winning author and lifetime outdoor enthusiast Ruth Rudner writes in an engaging style that helps you share her rich appreciation of the walking experience. She covers everything you need to know, including
how to find your ideal walking routine;
what to wear for comfort and safety;
what to take with you;
how to make walking enjoyable for children;
how to be an environmentally responsible walker;
measures for preventing injuries; and
tips for walking in both urban and rural settings.
Plus, Walking features more than 45 full-color photos that illustrate the many benefits of walking, demonstrate stretching exercises to do before walks, and show you scenic walk sites in the U.S. and throughout the world. A generous appendix lists tourist offices that provide information about travel and national and regional walking clubs that sponsor trips and outings.
Walking is another book in the Outdoor Pursuits Series from Human Kinetics. Like other books in the series, Walking emphasizes safety, environmental responsibility, and the fun of outdoor activity.
