Buy a pedometer, and start walking! Use google maps to plan out a route in your neighborhood, or find a park nearby. Start walking, and increase your distance every week. Find friends to walk with, and you will forget how long you've been out there! There are also walking clubs out there that you can join.

walk everyday for at least 20 minutes to how much you want and find a way to not get out of breath easily. walk slow and breath through your nose. if you do it through your mouth, our mouth will get dry and it will be harder to walk. try and get used to it before the walk-a-thon!
