Walking a Mile vs Running a Mile

A reader of my newspaper column “The Fitness Corner” (on macon.com) asked me a great question a few weeks ago.  That question was,

“Will walking a mile burn just as many calories as running a mile?”

It’s a really great question, and the answer is a little more complex than you might think.  Read the column here.

Also, for the record, if you have any health and fitness-related questions that you’ve been wanting the answers for, feel free to e-mail me!  Visit my Contact Me page to submit your question, and I’ll do my best to give you the best answer I can.

Be blessed.
