    I absolutely love walking. I will park further away in a parking lot, take the stairs instead of the escalator or elevator, refuse a ride and politely say, “No thanks, I enjoy walking.”
    Enjoying your focus on health.

      ​@@colinandpaigeif you measure the average stride from the heel to heal distance. Something definitely does not add up with your 10,000 steps equals roughly 5 mi.
      There is 5,280 ft in a mile times. 5. Mi equals 26,400 ft. Divide that by 10,000 steps and you get 2 ft 7 and 1/2 in per step. That is not a normal stride. That is a extremely wide stride.

    I have now completed my 2 (or 3?) day watch of all your beautiful videos. Thank you for making all this wonderful content. I loved every minute, you two are a huge inspiration, and are such naturals in front of the camera. Even your Better Help segment was 100% natural and genuine feeling. I'm super excited to see every upload from this point forth!
    I really struggle with 10k steps (usually no where near), but I used to go to a yoga studio a lot until a minor medical thing got in the way 5 months ago, but after watching this, I felt motivated, and said screw it, I'm going tonight, and it was great! - nothing bad happened! 🤣 By the way, you mentioned Adriene - I used to do her videos before going to the studio - did you name your Benji after her Benji? He so cute 😀
    I also love that I am entirely on the same page as you both with these two health videos! Great job making them science based.
    Much love to you both! It's so uplifting to find other good humans on this planet - we need a lot more of them! 😍

      We really needed to hear this today, as we have been a bit down.. Thank-you for sharing this and supporting us, it means the world. I read this out-loud to Paige and she teared up.. Comments like this reminds us that we are on the right path, even if we don't know yet where that path will lead.
      In regards to Benji, that was actually his shelter name and we loved it. We both immediately thought of Adrianne when we heard it 😆

    I did take a walk!! 10 k I get rather often but I don’t strive to get them everyday but 6k I feel is rather ok per day since I’ve read it’s not necessary to reach for those tens of thousands of steps since it came from that add you mentioned and not from a doctor! But to each their own a walk a day is something I love when I get one since yes I have work and a family and yes gotta watch your videos too when they come 😊Thanks and see you on the next one ❤❤❤cute doggie 🐶

    If you fail to commit to things it may be because you're just not passionate about it, or you get bored easily and you just enjoy new experiences. You're both still young often people don't find themselves until they are older.
    Don't forget you could jog, skip or do jumping jacks to bust those steps or walk to your next destination with Colin driving at your side. Only joking. Dogs are a great way to get fresh air and exercise, which is all the more imperative if you're on the road for lengthy periods. Stay safe guys, happy travels. Woof and waggy tail to Benji

    I adopted a 3 year old northern husky mix in November. One thing I know about them: they have to move.
    So we walk minimum twice a day and range 3.5-5K in the morning and another 3-4 in the evening.
    For me, I hit my 10,000 steps at 6.5K so my averages have been from 11,000-17,000 daily with a couple of days making it to 20,000. She’s off leash and we go through the woods
    No change in my weight (like 5 pounds)
