About this listen

One morning, Libby DeLana left her New England home to go for a walk. She did the same thing the next day, and the next. It became a daily habit that has culminated in her walking the equivalent of the earth's circumference. She walked through some major life milestones – and into her second act.

In Do Walk, Libby shares the transformative nature of this simple yet powerful practice. She reveals how walking each day provides the time and space to reconnect with the world; to process thoughts, improve wellbeing, and unlock creativity. It is the ultimate navigational tool that helps us to see who we are, and where we want to go.

This inspiring and reflective guide is an invitation to step outside and see where the path takes us...

‘A moving and wise book that powerfully conveys a simple truth: that putting one foot in front of the other is a transformative act. DeLana writes with insight, heart, and wit about love, loss, work, creativity, and the mysteries of being human.’ Cheryl Strayed, international bestselling author of Wild

Do Walk is a refreshing reminder that daily exercise isn't so much about sweat and exertion as it is about commitment and exploration of nature and of self. DeLana's evocative prose allows us to walk next to her. This book helped me examine parts of my life but, more than anything, it made me want to lace up and head outside in search for a new path of my own.’ Charlie Engle, endurance runner and author

‘Who knew that a daily walk could be a transformational experience? Libby DeLana shares her inspiring stories and best practice in this special book. So much of the wisdom in Do Walk has stayed with me long after finishing it.’ Cheryl Richardson, New York Times bestselling author of Take Time for Your Life

Do Walk has wildly impacted my life and inspired me to make some changes… I would’ve never thought that I’d find gratitude in walking.’ Alex Elle, New York Times bestselling author of How We Heal

'Libby shares stories and lessons learned from the daily walk she has taken each morning since 2011. May it inspire your own peregrinations; be they morning, noon, or long after midnight.' Suleika Jaouad, Isolation Journals

The sample of this sounded pleasant and inspiring. I enjoyed the authors voice, but there was little structure to the recording (I was very surprised to check and discover I was already on chapter 9), and it was less than two hours long, so I feel robbed.

Pleasant but short

Libby's story is a great inspiration to start walking but I thought this was really short and to be honest, could have easily been the length of a couple of podcasts so isn't really value for money if you're expecting more from a book.

Good inspiration but very short

When you know it makes sense, but you just want someone else to say it so that you are not the only person thinking the same thing - this is it about walking (how it cleanses the soul, helps you focus, keeps you fit for purpose). Libby's text says what we have all been thinking on reflection, but in a succinct & accurate way that explains what your gut has been telling you. Not how to walk, but why to walk...

Just common sense - spelt out sensibly
