See, I like that sort of distance. 10 minute walk? Yes please. I'll walk up to 30 minutes to work and back and be fairly happy, though with the upper limits I'm more likely to take a bus or drive on really cold days or days with heavy rain, especially if there is also wind. With these distances, taking the bus usually means I leave at the same time anyway.
I have more free time that doesn't concentrate on work this way, which means I have more time for hobbies (I draw and paint). Plus bonus physical activity.

- bovermyer 8y agoMy favorite commute ever was when it took me 30 minutes to walk to work. Most of that mile and a half was in the Skyway, so even in winter it was pleasant. As a result, I lost 40 pounds. Now that I don't do that walk anymore, I've gained half of that back.
- Broken_Hippo 8y agoI've always rather enjoyed 20-30 minute walking commutes. So long as I dress correctly, winter is usually not a big issue. I had some weight loss at first, but I do gain a bit when I stop doing so much walking. I know I should just get out and walk anyway, but walking is so boring when I don't have somewhere to go.
