I've been walking 4.5 miles a day, 5 days a week since Jan 2nd. As of today, I have lost ~53 pounds, gone from being pre-diabetic to normal levels, lost my entire wardrobe in the process, and finally my Vans died. They have been loyal a.f.
Glad they helped me on this journey to better health.
Get used to it. Walking that much you will be buying shoes about every six months.
Well worth it.
