  13. I was having a good argument with a co-worker about the value of
  14. walking for fitness.  He seems to think that anything short of
  15. a 8 minute mile can't be called a workout.  
  16.  
  17. So what's the scoop?  How does walking compare to running
  18. for fitness value?  Calorie burning?  Weight loss? Muscle tone? etc..
