Can I be overwalking?

I have been walking for around 18 straight days, with no rest. The last few days have been uncomfortable walks, with discomfort mostly on my shins. I think I may need to have a couple of days of recuperative rest, to get back in the game.

I actually went for my walk today and purposly did not wear my watch so I could walk a slower pace. I really didn't work, but I do know that I am walking slower the last few days.

I really don't want to push myself to the point where I dread walking. I really understand the need to walk from a fitness perspective, and also really enjoy the walk.

Bummer!

Walk on!
