Episode Description from the Publisher

Walking isn't exercise — it's a biological necessity. Dr. Courtney Conley, gait specialist and author of the new book, Walk*, is back to make the case that walking belongs in the same category as breathing and sleeping, and that most of us are wildly underestimating what we lose when we don't do it enough. If your gait speed, your foot health, and your pain management strategy have never gotten a second thought, this episode will change that. LET'S TALK THE WALK!
