10-minute walking workout. This is the second walk in our 4-part walking series, and today we’re making walking less boring.

This is a brisk, guided walking workout with music and stories to keep your brain busy while you get your steps in. It’s beginner-friendly, low-impact, and gives you a quick cardio boost.

You can do this walking workout outside, or at home on a treadmill or walking pad.

You get:

  • A quick 10-minute walk with roughly 1,200 steps.
  • Pace changes that help the time go by faster.
  • A low-impact cardio boost.
  • Stories so you’re not staring at the clock.


And because I have ADHD and tend to drift, I also share stories about:

  • Living with my strict grandmother, Mormor, in a small town in Norway.
  • Building giant snow tunnels and secret rooms in snowbanks.
  • Getting kicked into a pile of bull manure by a small bull.
  • Almost getting trampled by a mama elk after a very questionable decision.


This walking podcast includes background music, walking cues, and a bell at the halfway point.

Grab your shoes and let’s get moving.
