Take the Long Way!

Increasing your steps
Increasing your walking is the easiest, most natural way to raise your activity level and boost your metabolism. Find simple ways to increase the number of steps you walk each day, and you'll be amazed at how your health will benefit.
Try taking the long way a few times, and you'll start thinking of other ways you can add more steps to your journey.
We sent some of our best Luther Seminary walkers out with pedometers to pace out the steps from various campus locations. See how taking the long way can add steps to your daily count!
