I've made a deal with myself that I will walk to all of my destinations that are within a 15 minute walk from my home. I live in an area where there are a lot of things close by, hardware store, schools, restaurants, even the grocery store. The exceptions will be when it is raining (which doesn't happen often around here), when I'm doing the weekly grocery shopping or when it is dark.

I did the same thing when I lived in similar neighborhood. Instead of 15 minutes, I made it 6-8 blocks. I walked a lot then.
