Walking to work

Walking to work is a great way to stay healthy and save money on commuting costs.

Remember to plan your journey. On your first journey allow for 20 minutes walking per mile or 12 minutes per kilo meter. Wear comfortable footwear; carry waterproof clothing in case of bad weather or a hat and sun screen to protect you from the sun.

Don’t forget to keep you body replenished - have water with you as it is easy to get dehydrated.  The chances are you will be passing by more amenities when walking to and from work. So you could drop off your laundry, visit the bank or buy your lunch whist walking to work.

Have a plan B for errands or emergencies. - Know the local public transport routes and have the fare on you.
