I wonder what % of people truly do the purposeless, I'm going outside for a walk, kind of walk... I know I never do that. I walk to get somewhere, I walk to show friends the city, I walk while meeting with someone, but never walk just to walk.

I work from home – my commute starts and ends in the same place, so it is walking for the sake of walking.

I also grew up doing it, so that might have something to do with it.
