I used to have at least 7000-8000 steps built into my day from walking to and from the station, and then from Waterloo station to work, so adding on a bit more from a wander at lunch time or something wasn’t too tricky.
for obvious reasons this has gone downhill since March though, most I get is 5000 for a walk into town and back. should really try and do something about this, but the places to walk round here aren’t particularly enticing - if I go east it’s just roads going to New Malden, west is into Kingston (aka “into town”), south is… idk a dual carriageway? could walk up to Richmond Park but then by the time I get there I’ll want to come back again. plus I’m too lazy to do it before work, after work I’m tired from working, and at weekends I cba.
tl;dr: I am lazy and don’t do enough walking
