[QUOTE="Stubbs66, post: 2272052, member: 510824"] Apologies, I have tried to search to see if this has been posted before. I have been using walking as my exercise for a number of years. I find, with 28 years of T1 under my belt, at the age of 54, this is what suits me best. In lockdown, now it has relaxed a little in the UK, and with being furloughed, I am averaging about 14,000 steps a day with two main walks of @5.5km a day. My pace is 88cm and I manage those two walks in around 43-45 mins, so I am going at a reasonable speed. (N.B. I have found that if I try for a further walk, I nearly always send my blood sugars way down. 40 minutes walking is my ideal, manageable 'bite-size exercise). Anyway, anyone have a recommended make of walking shoe (not boot)? One that's easy to wear in? [/QUOTE]
