I find it very hard to motivate myself to walk without a concrete goal of some sort. I can walk to the store to get something, but to walk for walking sake makes my brain want to explode.
For a while I was able to keep to walking by taking Part in the Walk to Rivendell, which is an online Tolkien fan walking program of sorts. Basically, using the Atlas of Middle Earth, someone figured out how many miles it was to various locations in Middle Earth, and as you accumulate miles, you get to say things like “Oooh, now I’m in Bree!”
It worked for a while, but then winter came and the sun started setting at 4:30 and everyone says you shouldn’t walk around at night on your own. Then to top it off, I lost my notes of how far I had gotten. I haven’t been able to get motivated to get restarted.
