Some in the morning walking the dog. Then a round of golf in the afternoon walking up and down hills. Then came home and walked my girl again.

That's about what our drivers do in a route. But carrying 15-20 pounds or more.
A good distance for sure. Probably 7 to 7 ÂĽ miles.

Walking or cycling?

Walking, or if your want to making it sound better, hiking. But since I have ongoing hamstring issues, I am limited.

Walking/hiking are considered to be some of the best all-around exercises. I used to walk (really liked it and the benefit of it) and do stair-climbs with a weighted backpack as part of the legwork routine in my workout program. But dropped those two to substitute with cycling because I was not getting enough time on the bike. I have a two-story home and intentionally use the stairs as often as possible. I have arthritis in my knees and those three exercises relieve it. Doe's walking/hiking help improve your hamstring issue?

Not really, I just need to exercise somehow. I used to run a lot, but that really aggravated said hamstring. Doctor said I should not run for a while because it's too hard on it. When it warms up some, I will probably break out the bike. Some of the trails around here are really beautiful and some have some nice hills and obstacles to increase the workout.

I get mine biking, we have miles and miles of bike trails, I can get 30 miles in and never pass the same spot twice. Can't run due to bad bad knee, can't take the pounding, but biking doesn't bother it. I like to keep my weight right at 180/185, at 6'2" its perfect, same weight as when I retired 17 years ago. Once you retire you have to stay off the couch and move.
