It is good to start slow and for at least 10 minutes at a time. Pick up your pace
after a few weeks.

Walk with a friend. You can motivate each other to do it each week.
Walk when you have a break in your day. This might be during lunch, after dropping the kids off at school, or at the end of your work day.
Track your time and progress to help stay on course.
